Technology Isn’t The Problem – Abuse Is 

Technology is one kind of tool among many that abusive partners use 

  • Technology can:

    • enhance and maintain safety 

    • decrease isolation –empower survivors 

  • Technology can also:

    • be used to exert power and control 

    • increase the severity of trauma 

 

A Survivor’s Right To Technology 

  • Getting rid of tech / going offline? Nope. 

  • Limiting victim’s behaviour or technology use will not stop the abuse or stalking. 

  • Place accountability with the offender for misusing tech, not the victim for being on Facebook, dating site, etc. 

  • Avoiding the internet is not possible; but having better privacy and safety is.
