Routing system prevents countries vetting internet
 

Scientists at the University of Maryland said that they’ve developed a system that will show internet users that information hasn’t crossed through certain countries.

The computer scientists said that studies had shown that countries which are part of the routing chain can censor data or hack into it.

Dave Levin, an assistant research scientist at the university, said: “With recent events, such as censorship of internet traffic, Suspicious boomerang routing where data leaves a region only to come back again, and monitoring of users’ data, we became increasingly interested in this notion of empowering users to have more control over what happens with their data.”
