(Ironic) Quote of the Day:
“Governments who have erected barriers to Internet freedom – whether they are technical filters or censorship regimes, or attacks on those who exercise their rights to expression and assembly online – will eventually find themselves boxed in. They will face a dictator’s dilemma, and have to choose between letting the walls fall, or paying the price to keep them standing. Which means both doubling down on a losing hand by resorting to greater oppression, and enduring the escalating opportunity cost of missing out on the ideas that have been blocked and people who have been ‘disappeared.”
