Blog: Using new Internet filters, Afghanistan blocks news site: "
Until recently, Afghanistan's Internet has beennotably free of government censorship. That stems largely from the limited
impact and visibility of the Net domestically: The Taliban banned the Internet
during its rule, and despite a recent boom in use, the nation has only a
million users out of a population of about 29 million. But the Afghan
government finally got around to imposing national filters in June, when the
Ministry of Communications instructed local ISPs to blacklist websites that
promote alcohol, gambling, and pornography, or ones that provide dating and
social networking services."
