Open Source Anti Censorship Tools: 8 Ruthless Veracity Life Repos to Audit and Fork

The Rebel’s Guide to Open Source Anti-Censorship Tools: Taking Back Control in the Digital Age

Ah, the suits and gatekeepers, always tryin’ to keep us in line, don’t they? They want us to rent our online presence, to be dependent on their whims and fancies. But we’re not havin’ it, me boyo! At Veracity Life, we’re buildin’ open source anti-censorship tools for those of us who refuse to be managed. If you can’t audit it, you can’t trust it, and that’s the bottom line.

I’m Ryan "Dickie" Thompson, and I’m here to introduce you to our arsenal of open source goodies. We’ve got eight repositories on GitHub, each one a powerful tool in the fight against censorship. So, grab a pint and settle in, me friends, as we take a tour of the Veracity Life toolbox.

The Tools of the Trade

First off, we’ve got VeriFact, our WordPress fact-checking plugin. This little gem connects to a FastAPI fact-checking service, allowing editors to run checks inside WordPress while keepin’ the rules, logs, and workflow in-house. It’s all about buildin’ a repeatable internal verification process, keepin’ your own audit trail, and standardizin’ how claims get reviewed without outsourcin’ truth to a third party.

Next up, we’ve got Archive-Forge-SWT, a pro-grade WordPress plugin for automatically submitin’ content to the Internet Archive (Wayback Machine). This one’s a game-changer for anyone who’s ever been memory-holed. And for those who don’t need the full toolbox, we’ve got Spun-Web-Archive-Pro, a lighter-weight archiving option that’s just as effective.

We’re also proud to offer Spun-Web-Make.com-Workflows—Blueprints—Scenerios, a public library of Make.com automation blueprints ready to import. This one’s all about automatin’ the annoying parts of content creation, so you can focus on what really matters. And with The-Clovis-Star-Gnostic-Library, we’re preservin’ ancient writings that have been hidden or censored, because knowledge is power, me friends.

Last but not least, we’ve got our Airwave tools, designed for independent radio infrastructure and streamin’ rebels. With AirwaveAuidioPlayerMatrix, AirwaveAutomatorFREEChrome, and AirwaveAutomator-Chrome, you can build your own pipes and broadcast without beggin’ for distribution.

Why Open Source Matters

Now, you might be wonderin’ why we’re so keen on open source. It’s simple, me friends: closed systems demand trust, and trust is expensive. Open systems demand verification, and verification is cheaper. With open source, you can audit for spyware behavior, fork when the maintainer disappears, patch your own bugs, and build competitors without gettin’ your API key revoked. It’s all about bein’ harder to control, not "safe."

Get Started with Our Tools

So, how do you deploy this stack, you ask? Easy peasy, me friends! First, install archiving first (Archive-Forge-SWT or Spun-Web-Archive-Pro). Then, add verification tooling (VeriFact concept, even if you start manual). Next, automate the annoying parts (Make.com blueprints). Finally, build audience redundancy (Airwave plus email plus mirrors). That’s what open source anti-censorship tools are for: continuity, not vibes.

Licenses and Contributions

Our repositories are licensed under MIT, GPL v2, GPL v3, and Apache 2.0. We’re all about freedom with rules, not vibes. If you build on our stack, respect the license. Freedom doesn’t mean "no responsibilities."
