A al i P ce Once a contact was identified the fellow conducted the following analytical process: After an explanation of Emergency VPN by the Civilsphere Project EVPN was provided and with the contact s consent EVPN was utilized to generate a VPN profile for the contact to run EVPN is a service that provides a free security analysis of the mobile device network traffic to determine if the phone is infected under attack or compromised Once the user connects to the Emergency VPN CivilSphere captures the network traffic generated from the device for a few days The data is then analyzed to determine if the phone is infected or if there are any threats that the user should be aware of After EVPN sends the analysis to the contact the fellow explains the risks and information included in the report The contact receives the digital safety steps they can take to make themselves more secure as well as recommendations from EVPN and the fellow depending on the particular analysis received If the analysis determines additional steps should be taken with the consent of the contact the fellow recommends the next steps such as sharing the analysis with organizations like Access Now Te i e ie Test lists machine readable CSV files that include URLs to be tested for censorship were utilized as part of Step Two Censorship measurement projects like OONI rely on a global community of volunteers who run censorship detection tests from local vantage points In light of bandwidth constraints testing most websites available on the internet is not practical nor possible in many cases Instead their measurements focus on a sample of websites provided in test lists machine readable CSV files with a set of curated interesting domains There are two types of test lists: Global test list: Includes a wide range of internationally relevant websites e g facebook com most of which are in English Country specific test lists: Include websites that are only relevant to a specific country e g Brazilian media websites many of which are in local languages To maximize the breadth of coverage while reducing research bias test list URLs are broken down into 30 diverse categories The categories range from news media culture and human rights issues to more provocative or objectionable categories like pornography the latter are included because they are more likely to be blocked enabling the detection of censorship techniques adopted by ISPs Creating test lists requires local knowledge an understanding of which sites are commonly accessed and more likely to be blocked in light of a country s social and political environment The Citizen Lab which manages the test list project has therefore made the lists publicly available on GitHub and encourages community contributions For this research study the Myanmar test list was reviewed and updated prior to performing network measurements In doing so Netalitica s methodology was used Ne k ea e e Once the test lists were reviewed and updated network measurements were conducted using OONI Probe a free and open source software designed to measure various forms of internet censorship
