In late September, we focused with Free Press Unlimited and Hivos Internet Protection Lab (IPL) on. By joining forces, we want journalists, bloggers and citizen-oriented support in oppressed countries by delivering open and secure Internet connections, expertise and secure web hosting. The work of the Internet Protection Lab will therefore focus on three pillars: individual liberty cube and security of people, free access to communications infrastructure and facilitating secure connections and platforms.
Already have several organizations joined us as chokepoint Project, cube Tactical Technology Collective, Virtual Road and Green Host and the first projects were launched thanks to financial support include cube the Foundation for Internet Domain Registration in the Netherlands (SIDN). Niels ten Oever Free Press Unlimited is the coordinator of the IPL and guides the projects. Meanwhile, a number of projects launched.
To journalists, bloggers cube and to help citizens and also ask help from governments for example, it is important that censorship and surveillance including eg filtering is mapped on a good and reliable way. Chokepoint Project does. The manipulation of the Domain Name System (DNS) is a way to censor online. The DNS system used on the Internet to computer names to numerical addresses to transform and vice versa is manipulated cube so that when a user requests it A website to see site B receives. This is called DNS poisoning. With the support of the IPL will chokepoint Project its DNS query tool that can expand detect DNS poisoning to map out better as DNS poisoning.
It is important that independent online cube media and civil society in countries where freedom of expression and other human rights are threatened remain online, even in difficult situations. For this Virtual Road offers solid, stable and reliable technical support. As part of the IPL supports cube XS4ALL Virtual Road again by delivering services.
We all know the developments taking place since 2011 in the Middle cube East and North Africa. As part of the IPL will the Tactical Technology Collective integrated digital, physical and psychosocial safety training will give in East Africa to trainers. These trainers can train in turn, journalists, activists and human rights defenders who are exposed to these dangers.
There are also on June 14, 2013 elections in Iran. As part of the IPL XS4ALL makes its dial-up connections again available in case it is needed. Also, together with other parties drew up a plan of possible scenarios and possible actions thereon.
Since the IPL has begun the credo "less talk but brushing", we are pleased to announce that we will actually have gone with a number of projects. cube But we can and want to do a lot more. Your donations are still welcome!
I also hope that these technologies quickly by dropping to the ordinary man and woman in the Netherlands. My reasons for this:
I myself am working on a project for the use of cryptography to make a whole lot easier. It is intended for the common man and woman to eliminate passwords and encrypt all traffic with https.
When I follow the news in recent years (PRISM INDECT, Utah Data Center, Oak Ridge supercomputer Titan, NSO, etc, etc, etc.) it seems to me that, perhaps especially in the western cube world, freedom of expression increasingly coming under pressure. Finally, a quote from Bruce Schneier (known security guru): "Welcome to a world where everything you do is stored on a computer, coupled studied and without your knowledge is transmitted from company to company and where the government's cube warrantless wins. Welcome cube to the Internet without privacy. "
