Vox is a website, vox.com, from Latin, “vox,” voice.

Most often seen in the phrase, “Vox populi, vox Dei.” Or, “The voice of the people is the voice of God.”

Used in a letter to the emperor Charlemagne in AD 798:
“Those people should not be listened to who keep saying the voice of the people is the voice of God, since the riotousness of the crowd is always very close to madness.”
