These are the kind of allegations that we must try to bring to light before it is too late. A long time ago I had a notion of some of the things that you have raised and denounced around here. It is not surprising, however arbitrary, that Alexander Lukashenko, President of Belarus, is one of the unrestricted allies of Nicolas Maduro and his government. The two dictators know the power of the media so they have not only looked for a way to silence, but also to expropriate some media and use them to their advantage. When a government reacts with such laws in such a globalized and interconnected era, what it is exposing is its fear that the world will know the true face behind power: digital authoritarianism.
It is regrettable that in the 21st century, there are countries such as China, Iran, Syria, even Russia and Thailand, where there are so many obstacles to access the Internet freely. Similarly, it is striking that in Europe there are still countries with this kind of thoughts and ideals and that there are presidents like Lukashenko, who has been in power since 1994. Simón Bolívar said:

"Nothing is as dangerous as letting the same citizen remain in power for a long time. The people are accustomed to obeying him and he is accustomed to commanding him; from where usurpation and tyranny originate.

Thank you very much for sharing such an excellent post, @adsactly.
