Reporters Without Borders’ Uncensored Minecraft Library is Going to Fundamentally Undermine Government Censorship of the Press.
Minecraft - the best selling single video game of all time - may be at the forefront of a clever new method to deliver banned media to those behind oppressive government firewalls.
When Reporters Without Borders came up with the idea to build an uncensored Minecraft library, they opened up a new venue allowing citizens to see news which they otherwise would not have. On top of that, adding the ability for users to add to it themselves provides for a broad, open-sourced, uncensored news platform that foreign governments are going to find difficult to block.
It’s easy enough for regimes to block access to websites and apps, especially when those who administrate the aforementioned platforms are the ones pushing out the content which governments hostile to a free press may disapprove. It’s another story when it comes to blocking a platform like Minecraft, which already has 300 million accounts in China.
The Chinese government could theoretically ban Minecraft in the country, but the company itself, which is owned by Microsoft, isn’t creating or even promoting “The Unlicensed Library”. It is highly unlikely Microsoft would prevent a popular NGO, such as Reporters Without Borders, from developing and maintaining the downloadable world required to access the library.
Less populous countries with less pull in the business world have an even smaller chance of preventing their citizens access to the library. It doesn’t take much to download a map and servers can be run on personal PCs. The only way to truly prevent access to it is to limit access to the internet. We’ve seen internet shutoffs in the past, proving governments are willing to go to those extremes if they deem it necessary.
What remains to be seen though is how the library, and those who maintain it, respond to the misinformation which will likely arise within its pixelated halls. The library itself may end up being a window into a world iron-fisted governments don’t want you to see, but the content in it will need to be vetted. If contributors to The Unlicensed Library can do that, it’s going to become a powerful resource for those looking to maintain freedom of the press.
You can now add each other as friend with the command /friend (/f or /fr for short)
You can manage your friend list also through commands, you can see the list of available commands with /fr help
It's well known that our socials, except for Discord, were dead partially because of me.Actually only because of me, that's why we now have a Socialmedia Manager to handle our Instagram and Facebook and a team of editors and content creators that will hopefully bring back to life our YouTube channel
We're also currently hosting a Giveaway on Instagram so be sure to not miss it: https://www.instagram.com/p/B9TvCsTqDZH/
Our website now also has social buttons on top so that they're more easily accessible but for the lazy ones:All you have to do is join the testing server, /vote (or click here) and your vote will contribute to the total votes for the server.
Once the server reaches a certain amount of votes (currently 50 on testing) the vote party will start and everyone who voted will be rewarded, you could even receive legendary or spawner keys.
We also added several minor updates such as:
- Fixed sand mechanics and slab blasting on Factions
- Added ender pearl support in creative mode on /creative
- Monthly meme contests on our Discord with coupon rewards
But this is not all, there are plenty of other important announcements so I'll split this announcement in 2 and post the other part in the next few days :ok_hand:
After a slightly minor delay here's for you the list of winners of the past BuildBattle with screens of the plots:
1st place - Zziu (/p v -76;-53)
2nd place - UnsiW (/p v -420;-697)
3rd place - BlueberryTechLUL (/p v 108;-97)
Starting from April build battles will start automatically the 1st of the month every 2 months (1st April, 1st June, 1st August etc) and they will last 2 weeks, you will know the theme from regular broadcasts that you will see in game and on Discord.
Also rewards will be a little bit better with higher value coupons and stuff, you'll see :shrug:
We decided to make Nitro Boosting on our Discord server (Click here) a little bit more worth it.
If you don't know what Nitro Boosting is read here: https://support.discordapp.com/hc/en-us/articles/360028038352-Server-Boosting-
If you don't want to read too much and want the super simplified version then here:
Nitro users can decide to "boost" discord servers, once a server reaches enough boosts it will unlock special perks for everyone (i.e. more emoji slots)
From now on you will receive daily and automatically 1 extra vote reward (vote keys + money, skulls on creative)
We might add more rewards in the future if people appreciate it

The theme this time will be: winter
You can build anything you like as long as it's winter themed, it's not a pixel art and it's not copied from somewhere/someone
Alright it's been 6 months and it's time to reset again.
This time things will be a little bit different, we based new changes on the community feedback so let's see how it goes, here's what changed:
- New F TOP and /f topinfo, F TOP would only count blocks placed in your faction claims and the longer spawners are placed the higher the value
- Added /f topinfo that would display the list above with block values OR it would display specific spawner points if player is looking at one
- Remove permanent sponge (they'll be like vanilla now)
- Chesthoppers can now be blown up
- Per chunk spawner limit is now 120 (40 before)
- Weekly F TOP vouchers
- Fixed spawner watering mechanics
- Fixed ally/truce limits

New and fresh revamp of the new website with a proper dark mode and a proper light mode.
Here's a list of the main changes and improvements you'll see:
The dark mode is now actually dark and not bluish/purple anymore. Several color correction changes have been applied as well only for you so that you won't be blinded anymore while surfing our website in the obscurity of your basements.
We are now offering 2 kinds of rules.
The over-simplified ones for lazy people who don't want to read here.
And the over-detailed ones for those who like to read here.
As it turns out verifying on our Discord server for some is not as easy as one might expect so we made a tutorial specifically to help those people: click here
You might want to verify on Discord because doing so will give you access to all our chats and to Giveaways as well as Events.
Also because it's not very smart being in a server where you can't see any chat but you do you.
That's right, suggestions are now public for everyone to see and judge. You can upvote and downvote them so you can show others how much you hate them.
