Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, 10-12 December 2024
On December 10th-12th, 2024, the Internet Intelligence Lab @ Georgia Tech hosted an invitation-only workshop on Internet measurements to detect and document Internet censorship. This workshop was sponsored by the Open Technology Fund (OTF). The convening brings together Internet measurement groups with an established practice of working in the open to collaborate and converge on best practices, methodologies and complementary approaches for the collecting of data around Internet censorship. Day 1 focused on project updates, learning how to be champions for one another’s work, exploring data workflows, and collectively addressing shared threats and challenges. Day 2 focused on comparisons of data analysis and techniques, and collectively discussing our theories of change. Day 3 was an “unconference”, allowing for salient topics that emerged during Day 1 and 2 to be further explored.
This second convening of the open measurement groups included guests from Access Now’s #KeepItOnCoalition team, the Sinar Project, and the Internet History Initiative.
