What does Palimpsest_watch_bot do?

This Telegram bot serves as a comprehensive observatory for Chinese information control, monitoring three key layers: the Great Firewall's network blocks, post-publication content deletions, and restrictions or redirections by Chinese language models. Users can inquire about current censorship activities and receive responses with an e-value indicating the statistical significance across all monitored signals. Each signal includes detailed methodology, coverage, and null results, with all data hash-chained and time-anchored to prevent backdating. This free, transparent public tool is designed to provide reliable insights into Chinese censorship in real time. Visit the Full Bot Page #news
