Dear Barrack, I wonder what the court order contained. But this is not good. It messes up the DNS industry. Regards, Abdalla On Sep 22, 2017 5:38 AM, Barrack Otieno via kictanet <kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:

@Abdalla You are correct. Reading the story and following the unfolding Catalonia drive for Self-Determination it looks like the Spanish Authorities are coming down hard on anyone or symbol seen to encourage Cessation. This is unfortunate but expected. We are increasingly seeing reactionary action from Governments the world over to curb freedom of expression. It would be interesting to see how the Global DNS Community and especially ICANN react to this.

Colleagues, see response from ISOC below: Internetpolicy subscribers, FYI, yesterday we published a statement expressing our concern about measures taken in Spain to block access to certain websites and, perhaps more concerning, to require a top-level domain (TLD) operator to engage in content monitoring and blocking. This is a tense time politically in Spain with an independence referendum having been called for October 1 in the Catalonia region which the central Spanish government views as illegal. We do not want to get involved in the politics of the situation, but are concerned by the manner in which the Internet is being restricted. As we have repeatedly stated, we do not see Internet blocking / shutdowns as effective measures and believe they cause far more collateral damage to the economy and society. Please do read and share our statement: https://www.internetsociety.org/news/statements/2017/ internet-society-statement-internet-blocking-measures-catalonia-spain/ https://www.internetsociety.org/es/news/declarationes/ 2017/declaracion-de-internet-society-sobre-medidas-de- bloqueo-de-internet-en-cataluna-espana/ Shared on social at: https://twitter.com/internetsociety/status/910995196405518336 https://www.facebook.com/InternetSociety/posts/10154627959548239 Regards, Dan -- Dan York Senior Manager, Content & Web Strategy, Internet Society york@isoc.org +1-802-735-1624 <+1%20802-735-1624> Jabber: york@jabber.isoc.org Skype: danyork http://twitter.com/danyork http://www.internetsociety.org/ On Sat, Sep 23, 2017 at 7:28 AM, Grace Mutung'u (Bomu) via kictanet < kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:
