Network Censorship Monitoring and Testing of Malaysia's 15th General Election (GE15)

In the previous elections, our monitoring captured data that proved a few ISPs blocked the website showing unofficial election results from Malaysiakini. For the GE15 held recently, we published a guideline to seek more measurements on OONI specific to links related to the election.
