Tool to circumvent internet censorship set to launch.
Researchers at University of Toronto plan to introduce a software tool
on Friday that aims to help people in countries that censor the World
Wide Web.
Psiphon (pronounced sigh-fawn), a web-based utility, lets individuals in
a country that censors the internet sign on to a server that gives them
secure access to web pages anywhere, bypassing government restrictions.
Its creators plan to launch the software at the Protect The Net
conference at the university's Munk Centre for International Studies,
where psiphon emerged as a project of Citizenlab. Researchers at the
facility examine the relationship between digital media and politics
around the world.
