Capítulo #2 - o bom, o mau e o feio da burla da censura
Todos os anos, a censura na Internet aumenta globalmente. Do bloqueio no nível da rede aos blecautes da Internet em todo o país, governos e empresas privadas têm ferramentas poderosas para restringir informações e impedir conexões entre pessoas. Muitas pessoas, grupos e organizações estão fazendo um trabalho inovador para estudar, medir e lutar contra a censura na Internet - e estão ajudando milhões de pessoas a se conectarem com mais regularidade e segurança à Internet. Apesar desses sucessos, enfrentamos adversários bem financiados que têm bilhões de dólares para gastar em mecanismos de censura, e a corrida armamentista continua. A segunda edição do PrivChat with Tor será sobre o Bom, o Mau e o Feio que está acontecendo na linha de frente da evasão da censura. Em um mundo onde a tecnologia de censura é cada vez mais sofisticada e comprada e vendida entre as nações, também é nossa criatividade para medi-la e construir ferramentas para contorná-la, assim como a vontade das pessoas de revidar. Mas é o suficiente? Quais são as barreiras enfrentadas pelas pessoas e organizações que lutam pela liberdade na Internet?
