ADVERTISEMENTS

OpenNet Initiative, a group of foundations and research centers which studies Internet blocking around the world, has launched its site, with a search engine to help you see which URLs are blocked in what country, country profiles detailing each nation’s Internet censorship, and interactive global maps of net-censorship.

OpenNet Initiative’s goal is to covertly monitor and report on internet filtering and surveillance practices by nations. It collects global data on Internet filtering using technical and contextual tools.

It is a useful site if you are interested in Internet censorship.
