Over the past few years we are seeing the end of free speech and the battle for communication control. Censorship, fact checking and surveillance are quickly becoming the norm. The end of free speech leads to the end of democracy as we know it.
Cyber Witness is a P2P community of independent reporters and witnesses - an alternative to mass media. Reporters publish events they have personally seen with no interpretation. Until confirmed they show up as rumors. Witnesses confirm rumors they have witnessed and add their own details. Event details aggregate and become more accurate with the input of each new witness. Once a rumor has been confirmed by at least 2 witnesses it becomes news. The more witnesses the greater accuracy of news.
