Description
In 2024, over half of the global population will head to the polls to cast their votes. What insights have we gained about the role of technology in shaping access to voting? How can we leverage technology to safeguard voters' rights to a free and fair elections, and ensure the protection of speech that supports democratic participation? This panel will explore recent elections, discuss strategies for protecting free speech before and after the election, and examine how the upcoming 2024 U.S. election might influence technology policy discussions in the upcoming term.
