And so I can recommend dillo to anybody who has problems with censorship, and when censorship of an oppressive regime is revealed, usually some kind of intrusion attempts, and/or attacks, are made against the one who managed to reveal it.
Agreed! It is incredibly valuable in this regard. It's minimalist nature makes it far far more likely to be secure -- it presents a far smaller "attack surface". (I think the lack of JavaScript support is a feature, not a bug.) Yeah, except you need it often... (not everybody is FOSS oriented)...

Of course, the centralized state-controlled nature of the "normal mainstream" internet makes this kind of censorship and hijacking inevitable. If we realistically expect free speech we should be migrating to censorship-proof darknets (like Tor or Freenet or I2P et cetera) and perhaps decentralized hardware infrastructure like meshnets.

(I've gotten into the habit of typing my posts in a separate text editor to avoid this.)

Cool city :). I see on http://dennisn.mooo.com/wiki/ you like some of our music. "Hladno pivo" are capable musicians, but ideologically I feel differently... Can't delve on this though.
And I promised the other bug or similar that it were, of dillo. Not immediately. I'm slow. Pls. allow time. Cheers dear people! -- Miroslav Rovis Zagreb, Croatia http://www.CroatiaFidelis.hr
