ChOS Project 20
Your local Critical Press
Freedom of a press is very important for democracy and the general
well being of society. Tyrannies always try to suppress other opinions
than the official truth. Having a free press is a promise of other
opinions. Unfortunately free press can not found in many countries.
This project aims to provide a critical press to all countries.
Actually anyone can be part of local critical press. This project
builds a channel which enables you to report what is wrong in your
country or in your hometown.
How it works: This project uses the same Map application as the
project Showcase Tellus and the project Othernet. First you write a
report like any reporter. Then you select the target county from a
country list and submit it into a kind of bulleting board system. If
the readers like your article, they can increase its stability by
donating UN-Yellars to the articles position on bulleting board. On
the other hand if the readers don't like your article they can donate
UN-Yellars for quicker removal of an article. The basic rule is that
all articles should contain some local criticism, other vice the
articles would be like the articles of official truth; President did
meet happy factory workers, President has been giving his approval for
elevation of pensions, The prime minister thinks war is going great
and it will be won soon. That kind of soft-news are not needed on Your
Local Press.
