An analysis of Syrian internet censorship shows Wikimedia sites among the
top 10 censored domains. See Table 5 on page 6.
The data they're analyzing is the filtering proxy logs from October 2011,
so a lot's changed in our systems since then; for instance, the section on
page 7 regarding HTTPS traffic might be completely inapplicable to us now.
But I figured it was worth passing around.
