IETF 100 Hackathon will host a project that aims to use HTTP response code 451 to increase transparency and visibility of censorship.

Several subprojects are worked on :

• an indexer of censored web pages

• plugins for popular CMSes that make it as easy to mark a webpage as blocked as it is to delete or unpublish it.

• A web browser plugin that detects response code 451

• An update to RFC7725

• An implementation report for HTTP Status Code 451 & RFC7725

If you have a github account, please open an issue to join the Github 451hackathon organization.

We have our own XMPP conference room specifically for this project! Please join http451@jabber.ietf.org for real-time chat.
