The Right to Communications Freedom
摘要
This chapter discusses the right to communications freedom under the Convention and the Charter. It starts with a historical analysis of the right, focusing on its relation to science and communications infrastructure. It then analyses how the right protects activities in the field of information security, while imposing a duty on researchers to mitigate the risks associated with those activities. It also discusses to what extent these rights can be invoked to restrict the application of information security measure or at least allow for their circumvention.
