· Uncensor (by Amnesty Australia) ·
This one's so good I can't not blog about it. Amnesty Australia launched Uncensor today - "a place where you can take action against Chinese Internet Censorship...".
Where do I start? Will you allow me to get away with a bunch of bullet points?
- One of the bloggers is Antony Loewenstein. I read his personal blog. He rocks. Great choice, guys.
- The site looks fab. Not too much of that nasty yellow that Amnesty International uses.
- Totally *love* the search for freedom. By doing a Search you can send an anti-censorship message to search engine companies in China and experience internet censorship for yourself.
- Nu Wa, my new best friend on Facebook (and campaign mascot).
- But what's with the .com.au domain?
There's real information on this site too, it's not just all gimmicks. The "Who is affected by internet censorship?" (in China) section is pretty scary: "Internet censorship affects everyone. Environmental activists, HIV lobbyists, human rights supporters, bloggers with opinions." Errr ... that would be me then. And you too.
