Human Rights in the Digital Age: Balancing Privacy, Freedom, and Security

Abstract

The digital age has brought unprecedented changes to society, reshaping how people communicate, access information, and interact with governments and businesses. However, as digital technology advances, it presents new challenges to human rights, particularly privacy, freedom of expression, and access to information. This paper examines the evolving nature of human rights in the digital age, focusing on the impact of surveillance, data privacy, digital inequality, and artificial intelligence. By analyzing case studies, legal frameworks, and recent developments, this paper aims to explore how human rights can be preserved, protected, and enforced in an increasingly digital world.
