A new study by Freedom House reveals that Myanmar and China have the lowest levels of internet freedom globally. China has long been criticized for its 'Great Firewall,' a comprehensive system of online surveillance and censorship. Myanmar's internet freedom has significantly worsened since the military coup in 2021, with increased restrictions and government control. The report also highlights a decline in internet freedom in other countries, including Kyrgyzstan. The findings underscore growing concerns about digital rights and government control over online spaces worldwide.
