Who's been watching 'Buried' with Michael Sheen? We were glad to hear that WhatDoTheyKnow and #FOI had a major part to play, behind the scenes: www.mysociety.org/2026/09/01/b...

community.socialmovementtechnologies.org/courses/grap... Very interesting to see comics marketed as an easily distributed tool for NGOs.
