🚨 OONI reports Spain’s IP-based anti-piracy blocking tied to LaLiga unauthorized streams disrupted access to 554,507 legitimate domains (>500k) during match windows—and even flagged TLS MitM interception on a Spanish ISP. ⚠️ Collateral damage raises security concerns.

Spain’s Net blocks have a flimsy legal basis, and lack both oversight and accountabilityA few weeks ago, Walled Culture wrote about Hadopi, France’s infamous copyright enforcement mechanism. The so-called “graduated response” – aka “three strikes and you are out” – has been around for over 15 years now, has cost French taxpayers a fortune, and has never achieved any of its aims. As the Walled Culture post suggested, the latest court ruling might finally put the […]

Sobre NetBlocks.
Per circumstàncies derivades d'un projecte que duc a terme sobre la història del cinema iranià contemporani, pràcticament a diari em veig obligat a entrar en múltiples pàgines web amb el domini ".ir". Com que darrerament el govern iranià ha bloquejat la xarxa al seu territori resultava impossible accedir-hi i algú em va fer avinent que NetBlocks informava l'estat del bloqueig.

Wow, Iran's internet has been out for over 1,000 hours! 🎉 Meanwhile, #NetBlocks is busy counting the minutes like it's their personal stopwatch. 🤓 And Mastodon—bless its heart—still can’t figure out that #JavaScript thing. 🐘✨

When the Islamic Republic silences its people with internet blackouts, it should not be given a platform for propaganda. NetBlocks is right to demand transparency from @WSJ: how was the op-ed submitted, and why was the opposition denied equal access? Those who violate universal human rights must not be allowed to lie unchallenged.

NetBlocks reports show how completely the Islamic regime shuts down access to the open internet. When **no** sites are reachable, the right to information is erased — and every internet‑based business is instantly paralyzed. Such total blackouts are not technical failures. They are deliberate tools to hide violence, repression, and state crimes from the world.

伊朗全國斷網超過 24 小時 專家稱史上最極端網絡封鎖
伊朗自 1 月 8 日晚上起切斷全國互聯網連接，持續超過 24 小時。網絡監測組織 NetBlocks 數據顯示，伊朗當局在全國實施互聯網封鎖，除了切斷國際互聯網連接，部分固網電話線路亦受影響。網絡安全專家 Amin Sabeti 形容，這是伊朗歷來最極端互聯網關閉，規模標誌德黑蘭當局數碼壓制手段顯著升級。

🔎 ¿Qué está pasando con la red?
Grupos de monitoreo como #NetBlocks reportan que la conectividad ha caído a niveles mínimos. Expertos señalan que el patrón es idéntico al utilizado en crisis anteriores: un "apagón total" diseñado para:
1️⃣ Cortar la coordinación interna de los manifestantes.
2️⃣ Impedir que fotos y videos de la represión lleguen al exterior.
3️⃣ Inutilizar incluso las VPN que muchos ciudadanos usan para saltar la censura.

📵 Irán queda prácticamente a oscuras: Apagón nacional de Internet.
Los datos de monitoreo confirman una caída abrupta y casi total de la conectividad en todo el país este jueves. El régimen busca silenciar las protestas que se intensifican por la crisis económica y el desplome de la moneda.

On Monday, internet-access advocacy group #Netblocks said that live metrics showed connectivity in #Afghanistan had “collapsed” to 14% of ordinary levels, with a near-total nationwide telecoms disruption in effect.
“The incident is likely to severely limit the public’s ability to contact the outside world,” the group added.
The AP was unable to contact its #Kabul bureau, as well as #journalists in the eastern & southern provinces of Nangarhar & Helmand.

Wer noch nicht weiß, was ein überspezifisches Dementi ist, findet hier ein schönes Beispiel:
2015 enthüllte etwa die NGO Privacy International, dass Pakistan Überwachungstechnologien deutscher Unternehmen nutzte. Bereits damals war die massive Überwachungswut des Landes bekannt. Eines der deutschen Unternehmen, Utimaco, soll Medienberichten zufolge auch in Myanmar aktiv gewesen sein. Auf Anfrage hieß es von Utimaco, das Unternehmen habe stets alle Gesetze und Vorschriften eingehalten. Außerdem hätte man niemals direkte Geschäfte mit einem der Mobilfunknetzbetreiber in Myanmar getätigt.

The recent internet disruptions in Bangladesh have now ended, and just an hour ago, the advisor of the interim government took the oath of office. I've shut down all public proxy servers I was running since regular VPNs like ProtonVPN are functioning fine now. I'll also be shutting down my Akkoma instance at social.mitexleo.one, as I've transitioned to using Mastodon.
Unfortunately, I won't be able to work full-time, part-time, or take on any freelance jobs due to my college exams and the need to prepare for university admissions. This means I'll have to minimize my living expenses, and I won't have any income for at least the next 4-5 months. However, I'll continue to run our public Fediverse instance, buddyverse.one, for as long as possible.
My personal instance also needs an upgrade, as I'm getting a lot of interaction from you all—boosts, likes, and replies! Both my Akkoma and Mastodon instances see CPU and RAM usage spike to 100% when this happens since I'm running on a $5 Linode plan. The current cost for running my Mastodon instance is $10/month (Nanode + Linode Object Storage), and for Buddyverse.one, it's just $5/month. This is a significant reduction from the more than $100/month I used to spend!
I plan to operate a proxy and VPN server again soon. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to everyone who supported me financially and inspired me to fight against censorship in Bangladesh during these challenging times. I'll be forever grateful to you all. 💛
I also plan to work for the poor, minorities, and those who need our help in the future. The Fediverse has truly transformed my life—I’ve never had so much meaningful discussion or interaction, even offline, let alone on Facebook or Twitter. I know I act dumb sometimes, and I ask for your forgiveness for that. Please don't hesitate to let me know if I ever do something wrong or hurt you in any way. I'm open to change.

The new Hadopi? Piracy Shield blocks innocent Web sites and makes it hard for them to appeal
Italy’s newly-installed Piracy Shield system, put in place by the country’s national telecoms regulator, Autorità per le Garanzie nelle Comunicazioni (Authority for Communications Guarantees, AGCOM), is already failing in significant ways. One issue became evident in February, when the VPN provider AirVPN announced that it would no longer accept users resident […]

#London-based internet monitoring firm #Netblocks said the issues appeared to be “related to login sessions in multiple countries.” But the firm, which advocates for internet freedom, said there was no sign of “country-level internet disruptions or filtering,” which are typically imposed by governments."

Italy’s new Piracy Shield has just gone into operation and is already harming human rights there
Back in October, Walled Culture wrote about the grandly-named “Piracy Shield”. This is Italy’s new Internet blocking system, which assumes people are guilty until innocent, and gives the copyright industry a disproportionate power to control what is available online, no court orders required. Piracy Shield went live in December, and has just issued its first […]
