The Computer Misuse and Cybercrimes (Amendment) Act, 2024, signed by President William Ruto on October 15, 2025, is facing a legal challenge at the Milimani Law Courts. Petitioners argue the law infringes upon constitutional rights including privacy and freedom of expression.

• The petition was filed by the Kenya Human Rights Commission (KHRC) and Reuben Kigame, naming the Attorney General and the Speaker of the National Assembly as respondents.
• The contentious law is accused of containing vague provisions that criminalize legitimate online expression and granting government agencies unchecked powers without judicial oversight, violating Articles 31, 33, 34, 35, and 36 of the Constitution.
• Former Chief Justice David Maraga has criticized President Ruto's administration for fast-tracking contentious legislation, backing the legal challenges.
