It's one of the projects by Brian Dickens (@hostilefork) and I thought it would be interesting to share it with LibTech community.
http://blackhighlighter.hostilefork.com/ A little excerpt of it: "Blackhighlighter combines novel editing with in-browser cryptography to facilitate new ways of communicating. It was initially designed for a Sunlight Foundation contest to improve transparency in correspondence with elected officials. However, it was later evolved to a widget that helps hybridize redaction with accountability in many possible scenarios. It has applications to open government, but also generally raising the bar for fairness in communications." ========== Important PS: - I was thinking about posting on Liberation Tech's twitter account all the new projects presented on this public list, since they are related to technology and society (human rights, surveillance, privacy, freedom of the press and expression, etc). Sorry, we will *not* make "free merchandising" to companies and, please, no huge ego trips. We just want to share new ideas with the world and hack it, make it much better. :D You can mention projects and institutions you really appreciate, your own projects, interesting posts, news, essays, books, ideas, etc. Just remember you and your project (or other thing) can be criticized, receive some suggestions or - who knows? - good help to become even better, yayyy!!! :D There are hundreds of intelligent and very interesting people on this list. Some projects can be discussed here and receive technical corrections and/or suggestions, support, partnership... So many lovely possibilities! <3 Oh, and if possible, share your favorite project with us mentioning your @ on Twitter, please! :) Thank you a lot, dear all! Much love for you and my best wishes! <3 Ceci PS's PS: - I survived to hospital, but not my notebook. You know, lots of virus there, hahaha!! ;D Well, try to ignore the crazy auto-corrections of this bizarre new cellphone, please. I bought a "dumbphone" instead of a "smartphone", meh! :(
