Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Technological advancements, particularly in surveillance and data collection, have transformed how societies function and how governments and corporations interact with individuals. While technology has brought substantial benefits in communication, healthcare, and public safety, it has also raised profound concerns about human rights, particularly in privacy, freedom of expression, and security. This paper explores the impact of technology on human rights, focusing on the ethical and legal implications of surveillance and data collection practices. We analyze how different technologies, including facial recognition, artificial intelligence, and big data analytics, affect individual freedoms and privacy, offering policy recommendations for a more balanced approach to technology that respects human rights.
