FREE SPEECH: Hackers Offer Anti-Censorship Software 
The Hactivismo group of "Robin Hood"-style hackers plans to release software
to allow Internet users access to government-banned Web sites, raising the
stakes in the battle between free speech campaigners and governments over
control of Internet information. Programmer Oxblood Ruffin said: "We believe
that access to information is a basic human right guaranteed by law. It is
going to be an arms race." The "Peekabooty" software will use a distributed
privacy network to get around filters blocking access to material considered
political or pornographic by governments like United Arab Emirates, Saudi
Arabia, Myanmar (Burma), China and North Korea.
