Subject: [Air-l] Reliable Stats on Censorship

I am looking for reliable stats on the effectiveness of internet censorship in developing countries.  I am particularly interested in Saudi Arabia but could use information on Singapore, China, and others.  Any thoughts or suggestions where one might find this info.  Typical searches on Google have not been as fruitful as usual.
