      ab: An international organization of computer programmers called Hacktivismo is using technology to advocate human rights through electronic media by practicing “hacktivism.” Hacktivismo's new software, called Six/Four after the Tiananmen Square massacre of June 4, 1989, allows users anywhere to access small virtual private networks that are secure and overseen by individuals who apply to Hacktivismo for permission to handle routing. Using the software, democracy activists in China and other authoritarian nations can swap encrypted files, send e-mails, or request Web pages without being detected by censors. Authorities in censoring nations can only identify certain IP addresses belonging to computers in a ever-changing “cloud” of IP addresses.
