Censorship, Anonimity, and Ethics in Blogs

I found this resource today and it fits perfectly with what we were discussing last class about codes of conduct for blogging. This is a particular case since the handbook is written for people who are political/social activists but still offers an interesting approach to deal with issues of censorship and ethics.

The issue I found most interesting is that while O'Reilly and the Wikipedia guy (sorry I always forget his name) are advocating that anonymous posts are deleted, this handbook uses anonymity actually as a technological resource to overcome censorship and repression.
