Abstract: The Internet provides an increasingly essential underpinning in the modern world for a range of human rights. This includes, most obviously, freedom of expression and access to information, but the Internet is also key to the realisation of such rights as freedom of association, access to education and medical services, and exercising the right to vote in an informed manner. It is widely accepted that human rights standards apply to digital communications tools. The UN Human Rights Council has noted: “[T]he same rights that people have offline must also be protected online, in particular freedom of expression, which is applicable regardless of frontiers and through any media of one’s choice, in accordance with articles 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights”.
