The recent survey reveals that Southeast Asia faces a decline in internet freedoms, with war-torn Myanmar and China earning the title of the world's worst countries for online freedom.
No single country in Southeast Asia was classified as "free" according to Freedom House, highlighting the severe limitations on online rights and freedoms throughout the region.
The findings highlight a worrying trend where several Southeast Asian nations are more focused on restricting online freedoms rather than advancing democratic governance and protecting citizens' rights.
Timor-Leste is the only Southeast Asian country consistently rated as "free," a stark contrast to its neighbors like Myanmar, Vietnam, and Cambodia, which struggle with severe restrictions.
