PRIVACY UNDER ATTACK

Government plans to introduce digital ID, ramp up facial recognition tech, and weaken encryption services threaten us all.

75 years ago, the European Convention on Human Rights was signed.

It’s why victims can seek justice, why people in care are treated with dignity, and why freedoms are balanced fairly.

It quietly keeps us all safe and free every day.

75 years since the European Convention on Human Rights was signed, it’s still protecting us all.

That’s why almost 300 organisations are calling on our government and politicians to REJECT the harmful claim that human rights aren’t in the public interest.

If you're protesting, it's vital you know your rights

Save these bust cards, share with others, write phone numbers on your arm, look for legal observers if you need assistance and remember to say "no comment" without a lawyer

Keep yourselves and each other safe

🚨LIVE FACIAL RECOGNITION IS EXPANDING

The Home Office told us they’d consider a legal framework to govern it’s use.

But what we’re seeing is a rapid rollout - and no safeguards to protect us.

Friendly reminder: these are the rights we all have under the ECHR.

They're not just for a privileged few

They're for EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US

We all have the right to privacy

But government plans to introduce digital ID, ramp up facial recognition tech, and weaken encryption services threaten this.

Facial recognition tech is being used by police forces nationwide—but we know that’s just the beginning of government surveillance plans.

Fixed facial recognition cameras have gone live for the first time in Croydon ⚠️

The Gov plan to expand police use of this dangerous tech across the UK, with no laws or safeguards in place to protect us.

⚠️ Introducing new powers to restrict our fundamental right to protest is not the answer

During times of fear people understandably want to see action, but restricting protest further is likely to fuel tensions by taking away legal and safe ways for people to make their voices heard

Did you know that for the past 25 years, there's a law that's been quietly defending your rights every day?

That's the Human Rights Act at work

Happy Birthday to the HRA 🎉

The Prime Minister just announced plans to change how the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) is interpreted by judges

⚠️ A dangerous move that risks weakening everyone's human rights in the UK

So here's a reminder:

Tech has advanced massively over the last 20 years

But it's also brought a greater risk to our privacy

Gov plans to introduce the #BritCard raise huge concerns about human rights, digital exclusion, and mass surveillance 👇

🛑 STOP THE CRIME AND POLICING BILL

It will further criminalise poverty, and make it harder for people to protest

It’s back in Parliament in September

Share this video to let people know what’s at stake

👁️ Technology that is capable of tracking and identifying any one of us MUST have laws governing it

That's why it's concerning that the Met police are more than DOUBLING their use of facial recognition tech
