THIS IS THE ORIGINAL POST
With the threat of SOPA passing in the states, as well as Iran cracking down on web cafes, internet censorship is at all time high.
And, I, an open source and FOSS advocate, will stand up for freedom!
I am asking that my fellow colleagues, spread the word about my "Internet Survival Guide", and also contribute to the project. The goal of this project, is to make the internet accessible - to everyone. Uncensored access to the internet, I believe, is a human right, as long as it doesn't infringe upon others' human rights.
