DOWNLOAD THE REPORT
A new report authored by Valentin Weber reviews four key data-centric technologies whose development could fortify Beijing’s tech-enabled authoritarian governance model and offers seven critical steps democracies and civil society must take to ensure a more democratic digital future.
Artificial intelligence (AI) and other technologies that collect and analyze digital data are transforming how autocrats work to stifle dissent. Today, the People’s Republic of China (PRC) stands out for its quest to collect and leverage unprecedented types and volumes of data, from public and private sources and from within and beyond its borders, for social control. Thus, it is especially critical for civil society and democratic governments to identify effective, forward-looking strategies for confronting the spread of data-centric authoritarianism and mitigating its adverse impacts on human rights and democracy.

On June 24, several descendants of close to 150 refugees who escaped the Armenian Genocide converged in a little town 20 miles west of Toronto called Georgetown. Those refugees were, out of charity and nothing else, rescued by Canadians. They were brought to the town to learn to become farmers and good citizens.
Those descendants gathered in a greenspace called Cedarvale Park, which at that time was a farm where their forebears lived and were educated.
The somber occasion marked the centenary of the arrival of the orphans, who were dubbed the Georgetown Boys. However, it should be noted that 39 of them were women and girls. Roughly 300 or so people were present at the remembrance.
One of them was Tom Jackson, who serves as City Councillor for Hamilton, about an hour west of Toronto. His father Missak Toumajian was also a Georgetown Boy.
Jackson called the ceremony “a very emotional day.”
“To think we’re standing on hallowed ground. A hundred years ago, over 100 boys and girls left behind a wartorn country and a genocid
