Yoani of Generacion Y has more on this week's increase of internet censorship in Cuba. Apparently, the regime doesnt need fancy blocking hardware or software, just a bit of code that delays the loading of pages in Cuba.
Think about it. If youre a Cuban lucky enough to have some spare cash to buy an hour of net time at an internet cafe, it would be an incredible waste if each page you want to read takes 20 minutes to load.
Potro Salvaje has more, in a post aptly titled "Apagón."
