March Monthly Gathering
This month we are excited to welcome Kaia (Front Line Defenders) and Darika (Security Matters, Thai Netizen) to discuss emerging threats and challenges to users in Southeast Asia, Hong Kong and Taiwan. In an election year (Thailand, Cambodia, Myanmar and Malaysia) and with the backdrop of plans to implement GFW-style firewalls in Cambodia and Vietnam, organizations and digital security trainers regionally are searching for usable and affordable censorship-resilient tools and approaches to prepare users for election-related internet disruptions as well as the potential for more permanent censorship regionally.
