The Court of Appeal of Kenya has declared Sections 22 and 23 of the Computer Misuse and Cybercrimes Act unconstitutional due to vagueness, citing the risk of criminalizing innocent individuals.

• The ruling was made by a three-judge bench and specifically targeted provisions that criminalize the publication of false information, punishable by fines up to Sh5 million or imprisonment.
• The Bloggers Association of Kenya argued successfully that the sections violated constitutional thresholds for limiting freedom of expression.
• The court described the provisions as "so broad, wide, untargeted, akin to unguided missiles, and likely to net innocent citizens."
