See 2018–2019 Saudi crackdown on feminists. Note the problems with finding independent sources on Kingdom of Saudi Arabia-related topics ( details), and that controversial news articles are often taken down by the KSA government, but reposted elsewhere; controversial writers have their writings blocked. Useful sources include ALQST, which has an extensive bilingual database of people who have vanished, including some women and male women's rights activists, and the Saudiwoman blog. Inconsistent romanization makes it a bit more difficult to find non-Arabic language sources. And finally, please note that the Saudi government is engaging in a media campaign to improve its overseas image, especially on social media sites (probably including Wikipedia, they aren't stupid).
