      Tools to protect activists & reduce mass surveillance=YES. But they also need tools for publicity, verification, authenticity confirmation.

      If you are in tech consider developing tools to help 1-Verify information. Disinformation & info glut, not blocking, is the new censorship.

      Remember, like most human activities, censorship is circumvented in networks. It's rarely your image of the lonely dissident.

      For the most part, censorship via blocking is an attempt to delegitimize information & mark circumvention as .. dirty, not okay.

      When people want to circumvent, it doesn't require the whole country do so. People are networked so IF they want to share, it gets around.

      That's why disinformation & fake info gluts, and discouraging people from knowing what to believe is so effective. Because blocking is not.

      Yes, sure. I'm talking about what tools are getting resources and attention while huge needs are unmet, ignored. https://twitter.com/can/status/763407212102373377 …

      I need to have to find a way to write longer. Verifying pics/video is one of the biggest ones. Also filtering deliberate info glut

      When an activist posts a pic, flood of "it's fake" comments flow. Can't prove veracity. Vice versa—much fake stuff. Can't prove fake.

      I've long wanted folks to find a way to cryptographically sign metadata as (on or after) this date, like hostage holding newspaper.
