Thank you Ali.

There are two resources I would like to point you to for detailed data.

One is explorer.ooni: https://explorer.ooni.torproject.org/world/

It details the specifics of each website and in case it is censored, how it is being done. This helps advocacy efforts on anti-censorship (like which tool to use, who is responsible for the censorship and such).

We are currently doing IM testing (WhatsApp, Messenger and working on Viber and Telegram) on top of the website lists.

From this work, we have identified how Ethiopia censors the Internet, Rwanda, Uganda among others in the region.


Another resource is the ICLAB data which we contribute to: https://iclab.org/

Anyone who would like to contribute to this work is invited. It could be as simple as adding websites you think are suspect to censorship or hosting a Raspberry Pi in your office or home network and in the near months, a mobile version will be available.


Moses.

Hello KICTANet

Find a blog post we did with Open Observatory of Network Interference
(OONI) based on our tests of Internet censorship in Kenya for the last 5
months.

https://ooni.torproject.org/post/kenya-study/

If you are based outside Nairobi, and would like to run tests from your
vantage point, please reach out. With censorship mutating to regional
level (as compared to the national-level), it is important that we
capture wider experiences. Nairobi is NOT Kenya so our measurements in
Nairobi do not necessarily represent the country.
