Pages ripped from a magazine, have become websites ripped from the internet. With publishing going online, so censorship has become digital. Internet infrastructure offers a plethora of tools to governments and intermediaries to prevent audiences from accessing content deemed “undesirable”.
Censorship circumvention
Put the audience first and focus on the needs of the publisher.
But the opposite is true as well. There is no shortage of tools and apps that let people circumvent censorship. More often than not, these tools have little regards for the needs of publishers. We can't mandate that our audiences download VPN apps and peer-2-peer tools. We need to make our platforms resilient to censorship without putting technical demands on our audiences.
Web standards and technologies offer us ways to get our content past the censor and into censored environments. With clever use of existing technologies, First Draft Media makes your websites and content resilient to censorship and allows you to reach your audiences in the most adversarial of circumstances.
