The Internet and its pervasiveness in various aspects of human life have had a broad impact on the methods of social activities and have created new ideas in the functioning of social movements, including feminism. Therefore, the development of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) has brought about widespread changes in feminist activities in recent decades. However, due to the specific epistemological characteristics of cyberspace, feminists have been influenced by these and have consequently presented different ways of functioning. Features like relativity in knowledge, changing the language of knowledge, and democratization can be considered epistemological characteristics of cyberspace. This paper uses a descriptive-analytical approach to explain how cyberfeminism are influenced by one of the key epistemological characteristics of cyberspace, namely the democratization of knowledge, on their approach. It seems that despite all the distinctive epistemic features of Information and Communication Technology, the democratization of knowledge in cyberspace is not unaffected by the social context in the real world.
