Freedom House rates Internet freedom on 0-to-100 scale |
Grants will range from $500,000 to $2 million each, although individual Internet freedom grants of $1.5 million or more are unusual.
Up to $7 million of the $15 million will focus on programs aimed at:
- Assisting digital activists in "acutely hostile Internet environments"
- Enhancing "Internet freedom technology, training, policy and diplomacy."
Priority will be given to the development of:
- "High-risk, high-reward" tools used to get around censors and communicate securely.
- Expansion or improvement of existing Internet freedom tools.
- Merging or modifying existing technologies "to address specific unsolved or under-solved real-world Internet freedom challenges." These technologies include "alternative network infrastructures."
