These 6 Countries Have Blocked Social Media


Business Insider: 6 countries that block social media

Political censorship is alive and well in countries throughout the world.

In 2014, Reporters Without Borders designated 19 countries as "enemies of the internet" for actions ranging from Britain's distributed denial of service attack against Anonymous to North Korea having building its own internal internet and walling its citizens off from the global web.

However, despite the "enemies of the internet" moniker, only six countries actively block social media networks around the world, as shown by the following graphic from Dadaviz.


WNU Editor: Cuba should also be put on this list (even though it is slowly starting to loosen up).
