Hello friends,

To improve the monitoring of website censorship around the world, OONI
aims to create a "smart URL list system", which would prioritize the
testing of certain URLs over others.

In every case, the smart URL list system would only prioritize URLs that
are already included in the Citizen Lab test lists and which have
therefore been reviewed by the community and vetted in terms of safety.

We have published a document that describes the smart URL list system,
the goals and criteria for URL prioritization, and how you can
contribute (by reviewing the Citizen Lab test lists):
https://ooni.org/post/ooni-smart-url-list-system/

A summarized version of our Policy for URL prioritization is available
here:
https://ooni.org/post/policy-url-prioritization/ooni-policy-url-prioritization.pdf

As we're in the initial stages of design and development, any feedback
you may have would be greatly appreciated!

We also welcome any questions you may have.

Kind regards,

Maria.
