Internet Censorship Explorer

The University of Toronto's Internet Censorship Explorer looks at the world from behind national or organisational firewalls and shows what you get if you type in a given URL from inside. For example, you won't get through to www.amnesty.org/ailib/intcam/saudi/ if you're in Saudi Arabia. The project includes a summary of the kind of censorship being exercised by each country (e.g. Myanmar: Opposition Websites; Pornography; Jordan: News) and what technologies are being used to achieve it.
