Chokepoint set out to develop an early-warning system that can detect when governments or other actors restrict access to the Internet. The project collects, analyzes and reports on data relating to network neutrality and civil rights in the digital domain. This was a response to the Egyptian government turning off the Internet in early 2011, part of what is known as 'The Arab Spring'. 

My involvement was to conceive, recruit and lead team, research and provide UX design as well as assist in finding funding. 

The project won a prize along the way (Ars Electronica) and was ultimately funded by the EU.
