This online loophole was used to evade censorship. Five acclaimed journalists from five repressed countries became music artists: their censored articles were turned into pop songs and uploaded onto music streaming platforms. On March 12, World Day Against Cyber Censorship, all the songs came together as The Uncensored Playlist.
