Internet censorship is a controversial issue as more and more countries are trying to control or restrict the information that people can access. In addition to the positive purpose of preventing false information, some people believe that this partly violates the right to freedom of expression, and is even used to manipulate public opinion. So a group of people who disagreed with this thought it was a very unique way to make it easier for people to access censored news sources – through the game. Minecraft.

Reporters Without Borders is a non-profit organization that protects the rights of journalists and reporters around the world. Recently, the organization teamed up with Blockworks, a company specializing in the design of custom experiences in Minecraft, to create The Uncensored Library. It can be understood that this is a map where they have cleverly crafted the features of the game to write virtual books, all of which are articles or materials banned in different countries.
It can be said that Minecraft is one of the legendary games of the gaming village. Its popularity and great customization are the foundation on which this group of creators built The Uncensored Library. In many countries, websites, social media, blogs are extremely controlled by the government. People’s opinions and thoughts are heavily manipulated by information censorship policies. However, even if the media were all blocked, it would be difficult to block the world’s most successful game. Taking advantage of that loophole, Reporters Without Borders wants to use Minecraft to convey the truth to everyone.
It will be interesting to see what happens, will the government of any country ban Minecraft once it discovers this Library? Regardless, it seems Reporters Without Borders is ready to deal with any situation: “Together with the growing gaming community, we want to show the world: Truth will never be silent.”
Now, Minecraft players can explore this Library, which is a neoclassical building made up of 12.5 million blocks worked by 24 Blockworks creators over the course of 3 months. Currently, there are about 200 books filled with controversial information published, and this number will surely increase a lot in the future.
