DSA abused as political weapon to repress opposition
The Digital Security Act is being used not only to repress journalists but also to repress the political opposition. The government is saying from the start that this law was put into action to keep people safe in cyberspace. But an analysis of the lawsuits filed under the DSA shows that the law is being used against different political parties instead of actually doing what it was set out to do -- keep cyberspace safe. Was the Digital Security Act designed solely for the purpose of controlling criticism, opposition politics, and ideology in cyberspace?
The Daily Star Reporter Zyma Islam joins Mohammad Al-Masum Molla to discuss the use and abuse of the Digital Security Act.
