"Redundancy is essential to an archive" - necessity of having multiples, back-ups. So 'fragility' of the image is a bit naive. Nice idea of 'embracing redundancy' in opposition to traditional computer science quest to get rid of redundancy. Should people host overlapping sections of the image instead of just 1 pixel?
Why make basic unit 1 pixel? Wouldn't it be interesting to push ppl's boundaries, ask them how many pixels they'd be willing to host?
What is more important - issue of censorship or issue of solidarity? (answer - censorship is a way into solidarity)
