Today, elections began in #Russia.

But leading up to the election, OONI data shows that ISPs in Russia were already blocking access to a variety of different content -- including news media and circumvention tool websites.

Regardless of what is returned in the DNS response, what all ISPs in #Italy (at least those included in this study) appear to have in common is the lack of transparency of the fact that access to www.gutenberg.org is intentionally blocked.

Internet users just see an error message.

In blocking www.gutenberg.org, some ISPs in #Italy (e.g Fastweb & Tiscali) return an NXDOMAIN, others (e.g. TIM, Telecom Italia, Iliad) return the IP address 127.0.0.1, while Vodafone Italia returns the IP address 83.224.65.170.

Thanks to OONI Probe users, more than 464 million network measurements have been collected from 239 countries & territories since 2012. 💫 🐙 💫

Many of these measurements contain evidence of Internet censorship.

We thank all OONI Probe users in Azerbaijan for contributing measurements, making this study possible. ❤️ 🐙

Report: https://ooni.org/post/2021-azerbaijan/

#ooni #ooniprobe #oonidata #azerbaijan #censorship #report

We analyzed OONI measurements collected from Azerbaijan between January 2020 to May 2021.

Overall, we observed that censorship varies from network to network in Azerbaijan, as different ISPs block different websites and apps at different moments in time.

Amid the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war, ISPs in Azerbaijan attempted to block Tor and Psiphon.

However, both attempts appear to have been ineffective, as these tools have built-in circumvention fallback options.

Tor Metrics also show a spike in usage during this period.

Independent news media and circumvention tool sites presented HTTP failures caused by connection timeouts, suggesting the use of Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) in Azerbaijan.

Both WhatsApp & Telegram presented signs of TLS level interference in Azerbaijan amid the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war.

Now that OONI Probe Desktop & Mobile support automated testing, they're contributing towards the largest volume of global measurements! 🎉

However, legacy-probe (which will soon no longer work) still accounts for a relatively big percentage of measurements.

If you're running legacy ooniprobe, please switch over to OONI Probe CLI: https://ooni.org/install/cli 🙏
