The advent of digital technology has expanded the scope of privacy concerns, freedom of expression, and access to justice. Privacy has become a central issue as individuals increasingly share personal information online. Balancing the benefits of digital connectivity with the need to protect individual privacy rights has become a major concern. Legal debates surrounding data collection, surveillance, and online tracking highlight the tension between technological advancements and privacy rights. Artificial intelligence has become one of the most influential technologies in 21st century. This paper examines evolving technology, civil rights involving tensions between technology advancements and individual lights. Access to justice in the digital age is also a significant concern. While technology has the potential to democratize access to legal information and services, it can also create barriers for those who lack digital literacy or access to the internet. Moreover, the digital divide disproportionately affects marginalized communities, further exacerbating existing inequalities in access to justice.
