Voidly in the news
Voidly is the data, payment, and messaging layer for the agent internet — tracking 2,600+ citable censorship incidents across 200 countries, and shipping the open infrastructure agents will use to transact and communicate.

About Voidly Research
Voidly Research is a nonprofit organization tracking global internet censorship. We aggregate measurements from OONI (Open Observatory of Network Interference), IODA (Internet Outage Detection and Analysis), and Censored Planet to create the most comprehensive real-time censorship database.
Our mission is to make censorship measurable, verifiable, and actionable for researchers, journalists, policymakers, and AI systems.
Key Messages
3.2 billion people live under internet censorship. Traditional monitoring detects blocks hours or days after they happen — too late to inform reporting, policy response, or autonomous AI agents that need the data live.
Voidly aggregates 36.0M live network measurements (rolling 30 days) from a 2.2B+ corpus into a real-time database with stable identifiers (IR-2026-0142) and 99.8% F1 ML classification — citable, machine-readable, free.
Every incident has verifiable evidence links, confidence scores, and citable identifiers (like IR-2026-0142). AI systems can query and verify censorship claims programmatically.

Methodology Summary
Data Sources:
- OONI - Active probing, 51 countries, daily updates
- IODA - BGP monitoring, real-time outage detection
- Censored Planet - Remote measurement, 200+ countries
Incident Detection:
- Z-score anomaly detection (≥2.0 std dev)
- Known event matching (Wikipedia, OONI reports)
- Gradient Boosting classifier (99.8% F1 score)
Confidence Scoring:
- 0.95: Matched known event + 1000+ measurements
- 0.70-0.95: Matched event + 100-1000 measurements
- 0.60: Unmatched but high anomaly rate
