Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is a security process that requires you to provide two different forms of identification to access your account. It adds an extra layer of protection beyond just a username and password and this is why it's important: #Digitalsecurity #2FA

Yes, yes we do deserve that peace of mind while living the digital life but it's a shame that today it's a crime to communicate your truth to the world.

What does digital freedom mean to you? For some of us, it’s the ability to organize online. For others, it’s being able to share our truth without filtering, feeling intimidate or threatened, or being flagged. Tell us in the comments: 💬

Surveillance is not safety when laws are used to police online voices, especially those already pushed to the margins like journalists, feminist, womxn and activists. It becomes a tool for censorship, not protection. Here are some laws that influence censorship. #DigitalFutures

Even when we are always at risk, we deserve to reclaim our privacy both online and offline. “If someone can hack a phone just by watching over your shoulder, then how much of our lives are truly private?”- Anonymous ✨️ #DigitalFutures #DigitalUtopia

Privacy used to mean staying home, keeping secrets in a diary, unlike now where everyone’s a journalist. You can be exposed not by the state but by your own devices, apps, friends, or even family. Today, it means managing surveillance everywhere. #DigitalFutures

Collective safety, both online and offline, is how we survive. It shows up in the background with that quiet DM you send to check in, a shared account that protects individuals from being targeted or the code words used in group chats. #DigitalFutures

As we envision a feminist #DigitalFuture rooted in trusted circles and digital safety, the law still fails to protect many, especially structurally silenced womxn. Tracy HRAPF reminds us: we need legal frameworks that centre survivors and hold perpetrators accountable.
