contents Generative AI is an invaluable tool, however, in some parts of the world, this technology is censored due to political or societal issues. In this work, we monitor Generative AI censorship through the DNS protocol. We find China to be a leading country of Generative AI censorship. Interestingly, China does not censor all AI domain names. We also report censorship in Russia and find inconsistencies in their process. We compare our results to other measurement platforms (OONI, Censored Planet, GFWatch), and present their lack of data on Generative AI domains.
