How topic filtering works

Voidly aggregates network measurements (DNS, TCP, TLS, HTTP) from OONI, CensoredPlanet, IODA, and our own probe network. Every blocked domain is mapped to a Citizen Lab test-list category. The topic API filters those measurements down to a single category, then ranks countries by total blocking volume in that category.

17 human-readable topic aliases (e.g. women-health, press-freedom) map onto 4 underlying base categories. Pick one of the four cards above to see country-level rankings.
