by Maria Xynou 17 Jun '22

Hello, Last year, OONI wrote a research paper ("*Measuring DoT/DoH Blocking Using OONI Probe: A Preliminary Study*") which was presented at the Network and Distributed System Security Symposium (NDSS'21) as part of the DNS Privacy Workshop. You can read this paper here: https://www.ndss-symposium.org/wp-content/uploads/dnspriv21-02-paper.pdf This study involves an *investigation of encrypted DNS (DoT & DoH) blocking in Kazakhstan, Iran, and China* with a new OONI Probe experiment (DNSCheck). Today, we're publishing a blog post with a *summary of findings* (and video presentation): https://ooni.org/post/2022-doh-dot-paper-dnsprivacy21/ You can also find a summary of findings through this Twitter thread: https://twitter.com/OpenObservatory/status/1537764247442268161 You can help contribute measurements on encrypted DNS blocking by running OONI Probe: https://ooni.org/install Huge thanks to community members who supported this study!

by Maria Xynou 16 Jun '22

16 Jun '22

Hello, In previous months, OONI had the great pleasure to serve as the host organization for Kathrin Elmenhorst's Open Technology Fund (OTF) Information Controls Fellowship. As part of her fellowship with us, Kathrin investigated QUIC blocking & QUIC's potential for censorship resistance. Her findings reveal *QUIC censorship in China, India, Russia and Uganda*, and she shares approaches for QUIC censorship evasion. Learn more about her amazing research through her blog post ("*A Quick Look at QUIC Censorship*"): https://ooni.org/post/2022-quick-look-quic-censorship/ Thanks, Maria.
