Now, new research from Harvard shows that Wales' intuition was correct—full encryption did actually result in a decrease in censorship incidents around the world.

But he regrets that it took at least three years to get the Banc De Binary article to a place where he feels it is accurate and fair. If that's how much work was required to correct one small instance of fake news, Smallbones was asked, how can companies like Google or Facebook, which rely heavily on algorithms as opposed to humans, keep the fraudsters at bay? Smallbones replied, 'Yes, well, most Wikipedia editors would probably agree that they can't.'

• Matsakis, Louise (7 June 2017). "Wikipedians Want to Put Wikipedia on the Dark Web". Motherboard. Vice. Retrieved 12 June 2017. It would be far more difficult for governments to censor or monitor Wikipedia's dark web version. But Consonni and like minded editors aren't just concerned with surveillance. He hopes bringing Wikipedia to the dark web will also help improve Tor's reputation.
