OpenNet Initiative

A number of organizations are actively concerned with monitoring the ways in which various governments have attempted to limit or restrict access to the Internet, and the OpenNet Initiative is one such group. Drawing on a collaborative partnership with four academic institutions (including the University of Toronto and Harvard Law School), the group's aim is "to excavate, expose and analyze filtering and surveillance practices in a credible and non-partisan fashion." On their homepage, visitors will have access to a number of their research publications, case studies, their blog, and a selection of external links of note. Some of their more recent research papers include their investigation into the extent to which the Republic of Yemen controls the information environment of their citizens as well as similar efforts in Myanmar. Overall, the site will be of great interest to those with an interest in cyberlaw and related fields.
