Where indie data punk, meets media theory pop to investigate digital rights blues

Our research can be described as a form of data-driven investigation, a process based on collecting, analyzing and visualizing large data sets for the purpose of creating a story. In most cases, our method does not rely on data available online as a result of open data initiatives or in official documents – it’s rather based on active remote sensing, acquisition of information by using different open network analysis tools or data produced by applications or hardware. Instead of acquiring official documents from the government or some company, we prefer to examine and measure by ourselves in order to create a fully independent research. We believe that this kind of insight into empirical data will be beneficial to both experts in policy research, related to Internet privacy and security and the general public.
