Last week, I joined 3,200 digital rights activists, tech policymakers, researchers and co. representatives in Taipei at #RightsCon.

Doge's budget cuts were a big topic of convo.

But something else kept coming up: it’s not just the funding cuts that's presenting "existential challenges" to tech + rights, it's that the USgov has gone from taking the leading role in supporting an open/safe internet to leading in dismantling it.

Post-#RightsCon25 event with @au: “in #Taiwan, all the candidates running for mayor that had an #OpenGov / collaborative governance platform were elected, and those who did not were not elected”.
“Young people, who don't have age to vote nor resources to impact their community, feel a lack of agency and that makes them fall victim to technology like #TikTok. We are thus changing the education system to bring more agency.”

What key human rights and tech concerns do local activists in East Asia have?

> Hear their voices in our #LocalSoundBites from Taipei.

- In our first episode, we talked to Mallie 謝莉君, from Taiwan-based organisation Feminist Leadership and Mobilization on the Edge.

"We have many cases of tech-facilitated gender-based violence in Taiwan. Since 2021, the government started investing resources in this area, after pressure from civil society."

A promotional digital graphic with a blue background. The text reads, "LISTEN TO THE LOCAL SOUND BITES" in bold white capital letters. A QR code is placed to the right of the text. Below, in smaller orange font, it says, "Learning from activists in East Asia." At the bottom, there is a colorful soundwave graphic composed of vertical bars in various shades of blue, orange, red, and yellow.

Interesting discussion about issues with consent in this panel "Exploring the relationship between privacy, data protection, and democratic rights" - I don't think issue is consent, however, so much as manipulation or circumvention of consent and lack of transparency, deceptive patterns.
