Deflect in the media


Censorship.no (CENO Browser) is an Android web browser, similar to Firefox or Chrome. It is designed to circumvent Internet censorship and can continue to serve website content during Internet shutdowns. CENO is easier to install and use than a VPN, and harder for the authorities to block. When a web page is retrieved by a user, it is stored on their device and continues to be shared inside the country with other users, using our peer-to-peer technology. CENO automatically cycles through several methods for connecting to a website, choosing the fastest option available based on network conditions, censorship and the state of the distributed caching network.

eQualitie can further seed the peer-to-peer network with static copies of entire websites – making every one of their web pages easily available through the CENO browser even if the original resource is no longer online or accessible. CENO has been actively deployed around the world with strong usage across Myanmar, Ukraine, Russia, Iran and India. It has proven itself to work during network shutdowns in these areas.
