The "Illusion of Openness": In this interview, as part of our “Mitigating internet censorship” course, Patrick Boehler, the head of digital strategy at Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty warned against the “illusion of openness” that occurs when governments block individual websites. "As a user, you see that the rest of the internet may still be accessible, and you feel like you're seeing the totality of information that is relevant to you or the totality of information that you need. And targeted censorship removes individual publishers from that debate and risks dramatically distorting it." he says. Boehler also emphasised the need to build strong relations with the audience and continuously educate the community on tools and strategies to circumvent censorship. "What we also do is we do callouts inviting audience members to ask us questions. So if they have questions, they can write to us on whatever platform is still accessible. And we look through these questions and try to answer them -- the most frequent questions they may have." he says.

As we wait for actual text of Bill C-63, my thread on the Online Harms Act based on govt materials for today’s briefings. Main takeaway: significantly different from 2021 consultation plans. Focus on hate and child safety, not takedowns or site blocking. https://lnkd.in/eZaSFpFE

During a record-breaking election year around the world, discussion about how to curb disinformation is critical - and critical to do thoroughly, with an understanding of how legislation and language can - and is - being used as a means of press control. A new Center for News, Technology & Innovation - CNTI study analyzing language in 32 “fake news” of false information policies from 31 countries, finds that unclear definitions often give governments – unintentionally or intentionally – opportunities for press control and lessening the public’s open access to fact-based news.
