The law has been presented by Tunisian authorities as the follow-up of the previous interim government; it aims to complete the legal framework of Tunisian digital policy enhancing online security and strengtheningthe Technical Telecommunication Agency's powers: those caught in “obscene acts and assaulting good morals online” will be sanctioned with a $ 2900 fine and imprisonment between 6 months up to 3 years; The Minister of Higher Education will be in charge of monitoring social media to detect suspicious activities that may be related to terrorism; Public authorities will be provided with extensive powers to inspect public and private databases.
