Hello friends, Ensuring a free and open internet during emergencies is important, but access to COVID-19 information has already been censored in China & Venezuela. We therefore invite you to participate in a global measurement campaign, to measure the accessibility of COVID-19 websites in your country & share relevant measurement data with the world! To test COVID-19 websites, please follow the 4 steps in this blog post: https://ooni.org/post/covid-19-ooni-measurement/ You can also find the "COVID-19" button for OONI Probe testing here: https://ooni.org/get-involved/run/ Results from around the world will be published on OONI Explorer: https://explorer.ooni.org/ Please help spread the word: https://twitter.com/OpenObservatory/status/1242116342930722816 Thank you for contributing measurements during these difficult times. Please stay safe and healthy!

About Venezuela, and as I can see [1], they are not blocking COVID-19 site, they are blocking a Guaido's paralell "government" site (then, is another discussion). Guaidó and his team, setup a COVID-19 URL that redirects to their political page with some information their consider relevant. So is not a COVID site: sometimes details are very important. Thanks.

Hello Lupa, Thanks for your email. You're right to point out that the site that CANTV blocked access to in Venezuela is hosted by Juan Guaido (I also had VEsinFiltro's report in mind). I agree that the motivation for blocking in this case was probably more political (rather than intending to censor COVID-19 information per se). Nonetheless, we think it's interesting to track and measure all these various cases, and hope you'll participate in the testing. Best, Maria. On 23/03/20 17:42, Lupa wrote:
