| Abstract: |
In 2016, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution on “The Promotion, Protection, and Enjoyment of Human Rights on the Internet,” asserting that “the same rights that individuals possess offline must also be safeguarded online.” The Internet is a potent instrument that offers individuals a medium for education, commerce, communication, and more activities. It is no longer a luxury but a fundamental necessity for the realization of socio-economic and other human rights. Internet access need to be regarded as a fundamental right, as it is essential for everyone to maintain a minimally acceptable standard of living. Embracing this notion transforms our perception of the Internet from a mere tool to an essential right. Internet freedom is not only a facilitator of human rights in the contemporary digital landscape but should also be acknowledged as a separate human right. Notwithstanding its advantages, Internet technology may serve as an instrument of governmental oppression if employed for detrimental reasons, including monitoring and data interception. This amalgamation engenders a contradiction among Internet freedom, privacy, and security. Recognizing Internet access as a human right can ensure its protection. This article examines the significance of Internet access, asserting that its acknowledgment as a human right is crucial for the fulfillment of other rights. It emphasizes that Internet access necessitates safeguards that beyond conventional methods of protecting freedom of speech, and such protection can only be achieved by acknowledging it as an independent human right. |
