• Abstract: Generative AI is an invaluable tool, however, in some parts of the world, this technology is censored due to political or societal issues. In this work, we monitor Generative AI censorship through the DNS protocol. We find China to be a leading country of Generative AI censorship. Interestingly, China does not censor all AI domain names. We also report censorship in Russia and find inconsistencies in their process. We compare our results to other measurement platforms (OONI, Censored Planet, GFWatch), and present their lack of data on Generative AI domains.

  This paper critically examines the European Union's Artificial Intelligence Act (EU AI Act) Uses insights from Alignment Theory (AT) research, which focuses on the potential pitfalls of technical alignment in Artificial Intelligence. As we apply these concepts to the EU AI Act, we uncover potential vulnerabilities and areas for improvement in the regulation.

  We investigate Internet censorship from a different perspective by scrutinizing the diverse censorship deployment inside a country. We reveal that the diversity of Internet censorship caused by different routing paths inside a country is prevalent. We identify that different hosting platforms also result in inconsistent censorship activities due to different peering relationships with the ISPs in a country.
