A letter was sent by @[email protected] urging authorities "to take into account the current situation that has been created due to #COVID19 and restore the internet at 4G speed in Jammu and Kashmir." http://ow.ly/JFFk50z5Bij @[email protected]

We strongly urge that any steps taken by the Central or State Governments must guard individual privacy and ensure data protection for personal data that is being collected now or screened from already existing databases and being used in novel ways
#DataPrivacy #Digitaldefender

Recently we have noticed that some states have made the list of persons who are under quarantine public in the guise of public monitoring. This is excessive and a disproportionate invasion into the privacy of the individuals under quarantine.
#PersonalData #DigitalDefenders

We urge the government to resort to strict legal measures to regulate and supervise the collection, and subsequent processing of personal data of individuals during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

This is what you should do during #Quarantine

This is an excessive use of state power, disproportionately infringing the persons' right to privacy. The state should remove the names and home addresses of the persons under quarantine.

State Government publishes home addresses of 19,240 international passengers to stop them from breaking the 15-day quarantine regulation. Requests citizens to report if Quarantine people are roaming on the streets.

A new order for the temporary suspension of Internet has been issued for Jammu and Kashmir  that limits the internet speed on post-paid sim cards to 2G only. Pre-paid customers won't be able to access Internet.

Right now, #JammuAndKashmir has only 2G available for its users. During this current #pandemic we call #COVID19, it has become even more important for internet to work, and work properly.
