In March, we launched Webtunnel, a new type of bridge helping censored users. Learn more about what else Tor's Anti-censorship team has been working on tomorrow, at our State of the Onion. youtube.com/live/HjPdReNmf…

We're using #WorldDayAgainstCyberCensorship to officially introduce you to Webtunnel–a new bridge type designed to mimic encrypted web traffic (HTTPS) and evade #cybercensorship. Available now in the stable version of Tor Browser. Learn more: blog.torproject.org/introducing-we…



‼️ Again, #Kenya blocked access to Telegram during the #KCSE exams OONI data shows that Safaricom started blocking access to Telegram yesterday: explorer.ooni.org/chart/mat?prob… Telegram was also blocked in #Kenya last year during the #KCSE exams: explorer.ooni.org/findings/22846…

Over the past decade, we have seen globally that as politics change, (often) so does Internet censorship. If you're in the #US, you can measure (for example) the accessibility/blocking of reproductive rights websites on an ongoing basis with OONI Probe: ooni.org/install/

We're starting to see evidence VIA @OpenObservatory of alleged service blocking happening in Mozambique, specifically Meta social media and messaging services. Residents are encouraged to run OONI probe tests to further validate run.ooni.org/v2/10038

🎉 Good news! Even though the #Mauritius ICTA had originally announced that the social media blocks would be in place until 11th November 2024, the blocks were lifted today! 🥳 We updated our report to include the latest data: explorer.ooni.org/findings/73729… x.com/OpenObservator…

‼️ Today #Mauritius started blocking access to social media platforms ahead of the 2024 general election. This is the first time that we are observing social media blocks in Mauritius through OONI data. Learn more: explorer.ooni.org/findings/73729…

A win for human rights! The ICT Authority in Mauritius has lifted its ban on social media! The ban which was supposed to last until after elections on November 11 was lifted about 24 hours after implementation. We urge the authorities to #KeepItOn at all times!

Another country joins our shame list of offenders as Mauritius blocks access to digital platforms ahead of elections! Internet shutdowns harm democratic elections, amplify the spread of misinformation, and violate people's fundamental rights. #KeepItOn accessnow.org/press-release/…
