Blogs for freedom

Reporters Without Borders (Reporters sans Frontieres http://www.rsf.org/) have published a Handbook for bloggers and cyber-dissidents at http://www.rsf.org/rubrique.php3?id_rubrique=542. It will teach you how to blog anonymously, how to get around censorship and how to build credibility for your blog through ethical reporting. RSF developed the handbook because "Bloggers are often the only real journalists in countries where the mainstream media is censored or under pressure. Only they provide independent news, at the risk of displeasing the government and sometimes courting arrest." The counter-terrorism boys will probably be all over this handbook -- after all, if the good guys can use these work-arounds, so can the bad ones. Posted by belinda at September 28, 2005 10:18 AM
