The BROADCASTING BOARD OF GOVERNORS has joined the BBC, DEUTSCHE WELLE, and FRANCE MÉDIAS MONDE as co-sponsor of an international website initiative to help people get around attempts to censor internet information. BYPASS CENSORSHIP, at bypasscensorship.org, offers information on downloading and using security tools to circumvent government censorship.
BBG CEO JOHN F. LANSING said, "The right to seek, and impart, facts and ideas is a universal human right which many repressive governments seek to control. This website presents an incredible opportunity to provide citizens around the world with the resources they need to access a free and open internet for uncensored news and information essential to making informed decisions about their lives and communities."
