Access Denied: The Policy of Global Internet Filtering
Channel: The Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society
Date: 17/01/2008

Rob Faris, the OpenNet Initiative's Research Director and John Palfrey, one of the project's Principal Investigators, lead a discussion of Internet filtering and provided a glimpse of the results of ONI's first global survey of Internet censorship.

In the last year ONI has studied forty countries and found a substantial increase in Internet censorship, colored by complex and dynamic political, legal and social processes. The research will be documented in the forthcoming MIT Press book: Access Denied: the Practice and Policy of Global Internet Filtering.

The OpenNet Initiative is a partnership between the Citizen Lab at the Munk Centre for International Studies, University of Toronto, the Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard Law School, the Advanced Network Research Group at the Cambridge Security Programme at Cambridge University, and the Oxford Internet Institute at the University of Oxford.
