World Day Against Cyber Censorship
March 12 · Level 9 · #331 of 2238
World Day Against Cyber Censorship defends freedom of expression and access to information online. It draws attention to journalists, bloggers and other users persecuted for their posts, as well as readers cut off from independent reporting.
How it is celebrated: press freedom and human rights organizations publish reports on internet censorship and highlight the experiences of targeted writers. Campaigners organize awareness activities and discussions about digital rights.
For the occasion in 2020, Reporters Without Borders opened a library inside Minecraft. Reporting by censored journalists became accessible as reading material within the game's virtual world.
