Министерство информации начинает блокировать сайты за критические высказывания в отношении властей

Министерство информации ограничило доступ к популярному молодежному Интернет ресурсу www.kyky.org в связи с тем, что публикации на этом сайте, по оценке министерства, могут нанести вред национальным интересам Республики Беларусь.

Министерством информации за последнее время были приняты решения об ограничении доступа к 18 информационным ресурсам за информацию о продаже и способах употребления наркотических средств, пропаганде детской порнографии и табуированной лексики. Еще ранее предупреждения от надзорного ведомства получили четыре независимых интернет-ресурса: радио «Рация», общественное объединение «Свободный регион», Tuzin.fm и сайт Объединенной гражданской партии. Однако пока власти не решаются принять решение о блокировке ведущих оппозиционных сайтов, неофициально ограничивая доступ к ним в наиболее острые периоды и рассчитывая на усиление самоцензуры независимых онлайн медиа.
