Article Latest postPublicWe've improved Analyzer!

Did you know that Analyzer was our very first project, launched way back in 2011! We have made small improvements to the website over the years but just launched a new version of the site, with the aim of trying to provide a more complete picture of censorship. Try it out and let us know what you think!

Censorship and AI in ChinaInteresting study showing how censorship of non-state media outlets in China means that LLMs are being trained on official state media information.ArticleMay 26Public 0 0 RightsCon cancelledMay 5 View post The Chinese authorities managed to get the world's largest digital rights conference cancelled because of the participation of Taiwanese delegates. There were many sessions on the programme that the authorities would have taken issue with - Uyghur forced labor, exporting the GFW, digital silk road surveillance - but they chose "Taiwan". Credit Access Now, the organisers of RightsCon, for being completely transparent about how this went down. Not all event organisers would take the same open approach. And now there is a blueprint for event preparation moving forward.ArticleMay 5Public 0 0 How are Chinese human rights organizations faring?As a supporter of the Chinese human rights community, you will find this story to be a very good description of the current situation for many of our peers:ArticleApril 17Public 0 0 Ai Weiwei returns to ChinaMarch 27 View post It's important to note that Ai Weiwei made a visit to China recently without [major] incident. There was a time when this visit would have been big news. Ai himself put it this way: “If we were in the time of the Tang dynasty, someone like me would go back and write beautiful poetry. But not today. I just take a few selfies.”ArticleMarch 27Public 0 0 A new project!Over the past year we've been quietly acquiring recently expired domain names that we think will come with traffic from countries like China, Russia, and Iran. Since we started doing this, we've generated millions of visits to websites that would normally be blocked for the average user. But we believe we can supercharge our efforts with the help of the general public. Click through to our new site for more information about how you can help!ImageFebruary 16Public 0 0 IranSince our founding, we have always focused our work on helping Chinese freely access information. However, we have always known that if our tools work in China, they would work elsewhere. It's no coincidence that we are seeing an increasing number of Iranians using our tools to bypass censorship.ArticleFebruary 9Public 0 0 Another excellent review of the internet in ChinaIn addition to the story about WeChat we shared earlier, this is another important and current review of the lay of the land.ArticleFebruary 5Public 0 0 "I think circumventing censorship is essentially a language practice."This is a great story about censorship on WeChat. We have captured many posts by or about Zhang Feng's on FreeWeChat, including this one: https://freewechat.com/a/MzI5Nzg2MTI3MA==/2247583436/1ArticleJanuary 29Public 0 0 Resisting Cognitive Warfare or the Retreat of Liberty?This is an interesting look at the censorship of Xiaohongshu in Taiwan. Is it a matter of time before this very "trilemma" arises in other countries?ArticleJanuary 27Public 0 0 Our VPN in IranWe recently launched our VPN (greatfirevpn.com) and we have been closely monitoring the internet shutdown in Iran. We noticed that we are starting to get traffic coming through our VPN again over the past two days.ImageJanuary 23Public 0 0 Academic researchDid you know that censored posts that we have recovered from WeChat are often used for academic research?
