Demonstration workshop freedom index app
summary
Code Red unveils a working proof of concept: a 12-digit index that tags human rights materials into up to billions of subcategories, an API plus simple API front end that generates an index in about three minutes, and a control field that enforces public/restricted/revoked status and feeds a Wayback-style archive. Claim: conventional search misses ~98% of relevant items; result: searches return a handful (5–20) precise hits across languages. Stage two focuses on crowdsourcing taxonomies, trust/authorization and broken-link handling.
