[liberationtech] DRL Internet Freedom pages hit the memory hole

[Schultze, Stephen]

Hi all,

Thanks to those of you who have flagged an apparent issue with one of the state.gov Internet freedom URLs. This is just a minor technical issue. The URL www.state.gov/netfreedom<http://www.state.gov/netfreedom> has for a long time redirected to www.humanrights.gov/issues/internet-freedom/<http://www.humanrights.gov/issues/internet-freedom/> (our primary Internet Freedom page, which remains unchanged). Our best guess is that this old redirect was broken in the state.gov site upgrade that happened around Thanksgiving.  We don't use that link very often.  In any event, we've ask that it be restored.

Also relevant to your interests may be the link for the DRL Internet Freedom grant solicitation (next Statement of Interest deadline February 10).  That page is here, as always:
https://www.state.gov/j/drl/p/c12302.htm

Best regards,
DRL's Internet Freedom Team

https://www.humanrights.gov/dyn/issues/internet-freedom.html is showing up right now.  I did a quick visual comparison to the latest copy at the Archive, and they seem to match up.

Hi all,

  This morning, a colleague visited the DRL website only to find that the content had been deleted.  I checked another page and found it had was no longer available.

  So... yeah... That's bad.  =(  Guess the fascists figured out this whole "free speech" thing wasn't working out for them.
