Hi Mick, 
This past week on the Tor Help Desk someone requested assistance
setting up Tor to circumvent the internet censorship done by the
UK government. I wrote this blurb because I wanted the Tor community to
be alerted to this new use case. I pointed to your post so that
Tor Weekly News readers would have a frame of reference for what was
happening in the United Kingdom without revealing the contents of the
actual conversation I had. 


Peace,
