Intranet (Auronet) restrictions for selected Aurovilians

May 30, 2022 | Blog, Processes by-passed

A few days after the secretariat of the the Office of the Secretary of the Auroville Foundation gained control of Auronet (Auroville Intranet forum), a number of users reported having their access either barred or limited. It appears that all the users who reported these issues had been vocal in their criticism of the actions of the the Office of the Secretary of the Auroville Foundation, particularly since the events in December 2021. Some reported not being able to log in. Others were not able to post or comemnt on posts without prior approval from the Auronet administrators, raising concerns about censorship. It is not clear who the current Auronet admin/moderation team are since the previous team resigned after the Office of the Secretary of the Auroville Foundation took control.
