Open Source Anti Censorship Tools: 13 Ruthless Veracity Life Projects

The Rebel’s Guide to Building Your Own Tools: A Journey to Freedom and Transparency

Ah, dear friends, gather ’round and listen close, for I’ve got a tale to tell that’ll make your blood boil and your heart sing. You see, the suits, the gatekeepers, and the fact-checkers-for-hire don’t want you buildin’ your own tools. They want to keep you dependent on their platforms, subscriptin’ to their services, and shuttin’ up when they decide your content violates some vague "community guideline" written by a young buck in San Francisco who’s never held a real job.

But we’re havin’ none of that, me boyos! Over at Veracity Life, we’ve spent the last year craftin’ tools that we believe in: tools for truth verification, anti-censorship archiving, forbidden knowledge preservation, and workflow automation. And now, we’re dumpin’ all of it on GitHub for free, because open source is the only honest path forward. If you can’t audit it, you can’t trust it, and that’s the bottom line.

So, who am I, you ask? I’m Ryan "Dickie" Thompson, the founder of Veracity Life and host of Disruptarian Radio. And I’m here to tell you that we’re on a mission to give you the tools you need to take back control of your online presence. We’re talkin’ fact-checkin’ without the corporate gatekeepers, archivin’ your content before it disappears down the memory hole, and uncoverin’ forbidden knowledge that’s been hidden from you for far too long.

Truth Verification Without the Corporate Gatekeepers

You know what’s hilarious? The same tech giants who algorithmically suppress inconvenient truths also run the "fact-checking" industry. It’s like askin’ the fox to audit the henhouse security system! That’s why we built VeriFact, a WordPress fact-checkin’ plugin that connects to a FastAPI backend, allowin’ editorial teams to run fact checks inside WordPress, without any third-party censorship board or mysterious "trust and safety" council decidin’ what’s true based on who’s payin’ them.

With VeriFact, you get:

A shortcode UI for runnin’ fact checks right in your posts
A REST proxy to the FastAPI backend
Loggin’, analytics dashboards, and bulk tools
Full API management for your team

And the best part? It’s all open source, so you can audit it, make it better, and build your own truth verification system.

Archive It Before They Delete It

Content disappears, me friends, and it’s not by accident. The memory hole is real, and it’s got a subscription fee. That’s why we built tools to save your work to the Wayback Machine before the censors can scrub it from existence. We’ve got Archive-Forge-SWT, a professional-grade WordPress plugin for automatically submit tin’ content to the Internet Archive, and Spun-Web-Archive-Pro, a lighter-weight archivin’ system that still packs a punch.

And don’t even get me started on Spun-web-updated-proxies, a public list of tested, workin’ proxies updated every 48 hours. It’s like havin’ a secret key to unlock the internet, without Big Brother loggin’ your every click.

Forbidden Knowledge: The Texts They Don’t Want You to Read

Now we’re gettin’ into the good stuff, me friends. For centuries, certain texts have been hidden, banned, or "lost" because they didn’t fit the approved narrative. But we’re bringin’ ’em back, with The Clovis Star Gnostic Library, a curated collection of ancient writings that have been hidden, censored, or made deliberately hard to access.

We’ve also got Gnostic Library by Clovis Star, another collection with a different structure, and GnosticBible-SuperSearch-WordPress-Plugin, a powerful search tool for Early Christian and Gnostic scriptures. It’s like havin’ a treasure trove of forbidden knowledge at your fingertips, and it’s all open source, so you can dig in and explore to your heart’s content.

Automation for the Rest of Us

I know what you’re thinkin’, "Dickie, this all sounds great, but I’m not a developer." Fear not, me friends, for we’ve also built automation tools that anyone can use. We’ve got Spun-Web Make.com Workflows, a public library of Make.com automation blueprints, ready-to-import workflows for lead capture, content archivin’, and more.

And if you’re a marketer or dev who wants a workin’ template instead of startin’ from scratch, we’ve got MAKE–LeadCapture–With–Webhook, a specific Make.com workflow for lead capture via webhook. It’s like havin’ a team of automation experts at your beck and call, without breakin’ the bank.

Airwave: Tools for Radio Pirates and Streaming Rebels

At Disruptarian Radio, we live and breathe independent media, so naturally, we built tools for it. We’ve got AirwaveAudioPlayerMatrix, a WordPress plugin for buildin’ an audio player matrix for radio and streamin’ projects, and AirwaveAutomatorFREEChrome, a Chrome extension that lets you listen to radio streams and chat with DJs and guests.

It’s like havin’ your own pirate radio station, without the risk of gettin’ caught by the authorities. And the best part? It’s all open source, so you can build your own independent media infrastructure, without relyin’ on corporate platforms.

The Manifesto: Why Open Source Matters

Here’s the deal, me friends. I’m a punk rock libertarian, and I believe in free markets, free speech, and free software. Not "free" as in "we’ll give it to you and harvest your data." Free as in freedom. When code is open, you can audit it, you can verify it does what it claims, and you can fork it and build somethin’ better.

Open source is the only honest path forward, and that’s why we’re buildin’ transparent, auditable tools for truth and freedom. The gatekeepers won’t do it for us, the government sure as hell won’t, so we do it ourselves. That’s the DIY ethos, that’s punk rock, and that’s liberty in action.

Join the Underground

So, what can you do, me friends? You can clone and fork any project for your own use, submit issues when you find bugs, open pull requests with fixes, features, or documentation improvements, and integrate these tools into your own products, respectin’ license terms.

We’re buildin’ the underground, and we want you to join us. We’re talkin’ transparent, auditable tools for truth and freedom, and we’re just gettin’ started. So, fork it, break it, and help us build the underground. That’s the rebel’s guide to buildin’ your own tools, and we’re honored to have you along for the ride.
