I've been working with users who have networks in censored countries
to expand access to specific software bundles. My two approaches right
now are Google Web Store and torrents attached to a stable offsite
seedbox. Both are fairly accessible, but both have pros/cons. With
torrents, someone can sit as a seeder and try to tally information on
downloaders. Google Web Store downloads are tracked in unknown (legally
requestable?) ways by Google and of course it requires
downloading/installing Google Chrome to gain access.
It's not perfect, but at least for the user groups I talk to, they are
realistic solutions to a really tricky problem.
