[Air-L] Comic on digital security "Code of Courage"

[Laura Guntrum]

Hello AoIR people,

I am happy to share with you our *comic “Code of Courage,” which deals 
with the digital security of activists*. The aim is to better understand 
digital risks and to get some initial ideas on how to better protect 
yourself online, for example during protests, cell phone checks, or 
internet shutdowns. The comic is currently available in German, English, 
and Spanish and can be used freely and shared with others. Soon, we'll 
hopefully also have a burmese version.

You can download the comic for free on our website:

*Comic description: *
Safety is paramount: online and offline: Alex, Sarah, Maria, and Daniel 
are four friends who are passionate about human rights—in a country 
struggling with increasing authoritarianism. Their efforts to organize 
and amplify their message through social media are met with constant 
obstacles: internet shutdowns, hacked accounts, direct threats, and 
constant surveillance—tactics designed to silence dissent and spread 
fear. Daniel's arrest for his involvement in the protests is a stark 
reminder of the dangers they all face. Join Maria as she learns more 
about digital security—and what it means for activists—in four short 
comic stories.

Spread the word!

Thanks and all the best,
Laura
