Our latest report documents extensive LGBTIQ censorship & the blocking of Change.org, Global Fund for Women, GlobalGiving, Open Society Foundations, Clubhouse and ProtonVPN (among others) in #Tanzania based on OONI data. 🧵
We thank the researchers from the University of Illinois Chicago, the University of Twente and the University of Amsterdam for this research collaboration! ❤️
Images do not get mirrored from one Lemmy instance to another. Understandably so. But there is a harmful side effect: if SourceNode is behind an access-restricted walled-garden and an image from that node is cross-posted to a DestinationNode that is not inside the same access-restricted walled-garden, then some readers on...
Ideally there would be a service that expands on what downinspector.com does. Something that tries to access an URL from various kinds of IPs (CGNAT, Tor, VPNs, public libraries, various regions) to establish whether or not the file is reachable by all people. Then ideally lemmy could be coded to treat links based on whether exclusivity is detected.
In principle this would be in the domain of the #OONI project. But I doubt they have anything like this. E.g. OONI tracks whether a country blocks a domain (explorer.ooni.org/domains), but not whether a domain blocks a country.
Last month, in collaboration w/ ISOC, M-Lab, Censored Planet, and IODA, we co-hosted an internet measurement hackathon alongside the Internet Measurement Conference (IMC) 2023! 🐙
