A colleague is working on a story that a particular country not to be named
implemented technology to block a particular infamous riot-inducing video
for a certain section of its populace.
The questions are: 1) how hard is this to do at scale, 2) does it require
DPI equipment and 3) is there a way to prove, from an end node, that it's
happening?
Off-list replies are fine, even better are folks willing to talk on record.
I appreciate any help you can give.
