[liberationtech] Advice for Somali NGOs?

[Steven Clift]

What do others think?

Does this mean never?

Clearly a few years ago Global Voices Online felt compelled to write a guide
about blogging that made it pretty clear nothing is safe online in terms of
being tracked down but you can reduce your risk.

So if safe is clearly unacceptable and "safer" implies something impossible,
then taking the "you have a video file you want to share" but you want to
reduce your risk when sharing where are some good "101" introductory
resources?

This group clearly has some of the brighest minds and those connected to the
liberation tech field. If you don't know, does it not exist? (Which I guess
brings up the why? question.)

So, what is out there that you recommend I share with NGOs active in Somalia
to reduce their (or everyday people they advise) risk online?

Until "safer" can be quantified in terms that make sense to every owner of a

(hastily written, but I stand by the sentiment if not the phrasing)
