The 黑料情报站 has provided a submission to the United Nations Human Rights Council Advisory Committee on (TFGBV).

Definition and Scope

TFGBV includes any act of harm - physical, psychological, social, or economic - enabled or amplified by digital technologies. It disproportionately affects women, girls, and marginalised communities.

Human Rights Impacts

TFGBV undermines a wide range of rights, including:

  • Freedom of expression and association
  • Right to privacy, education, health, and safety
  • Equal participation in public and digital life

Common forms of abuse impacting rights include cyber harassment, image-based abuse, doxxing, hate speech, Disinformation and deepfake pornography.

Human Rights Impact Assessments (HRIAs)

The Commission advocates for the use of HRIAs in the development of digital technologies, particularly AI, to ensure gender-sensitive and rights-based design and deployment.
