The holiday season is upon us, which means that many are now scouring the internet for that perfect gift for the people we love.

Of course, I would argue that perfect gift - among other criteria - is one that doesn't violate a loved one's basic human rights.

No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks.
Universal Declaration of Human Rights | United Nations
A milestone document in the history of human rights, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights set out, for the first time, fundamental human rights to be universally protected. It has been translated into over 500 languages.
