Dear John,
We are in our artificial intelligence (AI) era, where few people can tell the difference between what’s real and what’s fake. The threats of internet fragmentation continue, and authoritarians' control over the World Wide Web is growing, as they block sites and platforms, censor content, and increase surveillance.
These topics and more will be explored in the 2023 edition of our annual Freedom on the Net report (coming October 4). To prepare for the report’s release, we invite you to explore many of its themes through these four insightful books.

Coercion at Home, Pressure Abroad
Governments around the world have long used coercion by proxy—when they punish, harass, or otherwise intimidate the relatives of exiles living abroad—to silence diaspora activists. The Saudi government’s recent decision to arrest five people living in Saudi Arabia after their relatives in the United States sued it in a federal court exemplifies this troubling practice. But coercion by proxy is difficult to combat as it takes place entirely within another country’s borders.
