Blogger Persecution Hall of Shame: Governments silence bloggers with imprisonment, torture
Tyrants fear the blogosphere, and they strike back with savagery:
- Iran Official Policy: “Torture the Blogger” (for opposing the regime)
- Chinese blogger sentenced to three years in prison (for insulting socialism)
- Hong Kong: Blogger faces 12 months or $HK400K for linking (to nude art as a protest)
- Kazakh blogger sentenced for insulting president (accusing him of involvement in murder)
- Egyptian blogger Abdel Kareem Nabil sentenced (to four years in prison for insulting Islam; see what you can do to help!)
- More Evidence Emerges on Yahoo!’s Role in Chinese Internet Cases (blogger sentenced to ten years in prison)
- Jerry Yang, Yahoo, summoned to DC (to be questioned by House Foreign Affairs Committee)
- Cubans go to unusual lengths to post blogs (to get around government censorship)
