As much as we online journalists love reports that rank things, even we must sometimes resist the urge to blog about them, even "In one map." Because honestly, some countries are just going to either be really good or bad at various things for the foreseeable future. Freedom House's annual Freedom on the Net report is out, and like in most such reports, the actual rankings are largely unsurprising. Iceland, the frozen whistleblower nirvana, ranked first, and second was Estonia, the tiny Baltic country that gave us Skype. In any case, declines in Internet freedom are never good, particularly not when it puts us in the company of countries that arrest dissenters or restrict access to the web.
