The passing of the new cybercrime law is another worrisome development for citizens in Egypt and adds to the many human rights violations already in place. Signed by President Abdelfattah al-Sisi in August 2018, the law provides the State with the authority to block websites that it deems pose threats to national security and the economy. Administrators and visitors to these sites may face fines and jail times for doing so.The law was passed by Parliament in June 2018.
