Protocol and app blocking measurement

Hello, Few years ago, Dutch Internet Society released a very good application to test for protocol and communication app blocking, the application have not been maintained for some time now, but is still accessible under open.internet.nl. I think it will be a good idea to integrate the tests this application does into OONI probe, do you think this is possible? The open.internet.nl tests for: "VOIP (SIP and Skype), Whatsapp (XMPP), YouTube, BitTorrent and Spotify. And the related protocols RTSP, DNS, RTP and RTCP." Regards, Hanna.

Ah, cool, I didn't know about it!

Yes, I agree!
do you think this is possible?
Possibly. To provide a more precise answer it would help: - to know whether the sources are available somewhere (I spent only a couple of minutes on the site and didn't find a "sources" tab and couldn't also find anything related on github by quickly googling) - to know whether the tests are specified somewhere (even without sources, with a good specification, we can re-implement it) As I said, I did a quick search but did not find information on that on the website. Either I was too quick or it's not obvious. Do you know where we can find that info?
The open.internet.nl <http://open.internet.nl> tests for: "VOIP (SIP and Skype), Whatsapp (XMPP), YouTube, BitTorrent and Spotify. And the related protocols RTSP, DNS, RTP and RTCP."
Nice! I wonder, for example, how YouTube test is implemented, i.e. do they connect directly to YouTube servers or use another strategy? Thank you, Simone -- Simone Basso https://github.com/bassosimone/

Hello Simone, I have helped them in translating the app years ago, and don't know where the app is hosted now, will get in touch with them to get the details. Best, Hanna. On Monday, March 20, 2017, Simone Basso <bassosimone@gmail.com> wrote:

Per a blog post on the site it looks like the source is available on google code. http://open.internet.nl/?page_id=529&lang=en The SVN links don't work anymore, but the project and source code is still there. https://code.google.com/archive/p/open-internet-server/source/default/source Best, s2e -- seamus tuohy Principal Consultant | Prudent Innovation <http://prudentinnovation.org/> s2e@prudentinnovation.org PGP: 36AC 272E B7CF EDD5 F907 E488 B619 3EC7 3CF0 7AA7 <http://seamustuohy.com/PGP/> On Tue, Mar 21, 2017 at 7:00 AM, Simone Basso <bassosimone@gmail.com> wrote:
