Episode 2. of Occupied Tech deep dives into the world of digital rights, surveillance and the escalating cyber warfare against Palestinians. From Israel’s systemic digital apartheid to what experts now call “digital genocide,” this conversation sheds light on how tech is weaponised as a tool of oppression.
Host Paul Biggar is joined by Eric Sype, national organiser at 7amleh https://7amleh.org/ The Arab Center for the Advancement of Social Media. Together, they unpack how Israel routinely disrupts Palestinian ICT infrastructure with a “kill switch,” how Big Tech enables censorship and mass surveillance and how digital repression plays out on platforms like Meta, Google and PayPal.
