Virtual Library Opens Inside Minecraft To Share Banned News Stories

Reporters Without Borders has found an entirely new way of distributing banned journalism in some of the world's most repressive countries: Minecraft.

The advocacy group has opened an online space with a dedicated server for the game of video that is popularly known as The Uncensored Library. It is accessible to all of Minecraft's 145 million monthly gamers.

The library will include news stories that were not censored in the country of their origin and influenced by the neoclassical architectures of the past of Rome and Greece.

The Uncensored Library is a new virtual library in Minecraft, created in part by Reporters Without Borders to host the work of journalists who are banned or censored in their home countries

The library will contain stories from five countries that are near the bottom of Reporters Without Borders’ World Press Freedom Index. https://extrema.org/ These include Egypt, Russia, Saudi Arabia and Vietnam.

The stories will be published in English and in the language they were originally written in.

The stories' text cannot be altered or edited however anyone who has access to the Minecraft server hosting the library can read the stories.

The project is supported by a number of prominent journalists who have had their work or that of someone they love censored. This includes Nguyen van Dai, a Vietnamese blogger, Yulia Berezovskaia, and Hatice Cengiz, the fiancée of Jamal Khashoggi, the murdered journalist.

'In many countries around the globe, there's no free access to information and information,' Reporters Without Borders' Christian Mihr said in a statement on the organization's website.

"Websites are blocked, independent publications are banned and the state regulates the press." Young people aren't being able to formulate their own opinions.'

'By using Minecraft, the world's most popular computer game as an instrument, we grant players access to information from independent sources.'

To start with, the library will include the work of journalists who are banned in five countries, which include Egypt, Vietnam, Russia, Saudi Arabia, and Mexico
