El gobierno cubano no sólo bloquea el acceso al Internet de sus ciudadanos, salvo un grupo de privilegiados y personalidades oficialistas, sino que también lo hace con el correo electrónico.
DemocraciaParticipativa.net ha comprobado en múltiples instancias que algunos cubanos interesados en nuestros Boletines de información han visto limitado su "alcance internacional" para impedirles el acceso a la información en un país donde la prensa y otros medios de comunicación están totalmente controlados.
Mostramos a los lectores uno de esos casos, en el que se rechaza el envío de nuestros boletines porque el destinatario "No tiene autorizado alcance internacional".
Hemos omitido el nombre del destinatario para evitarle represalias y represión oficial. [read this message in English after the following text]

The Cuban government not only blocks its citizens from access to the internet -except for a group of privileged and pro-Government figures-, but it is also blocking international email access.
ParticipatoryDemocracy.net has received notices in multiple instances showing that some Cubans interested in our newsletters have found their international reach blocked to prevent them from access to alternative sources of information in a country where the press and other media are fully controlled.
We show our readers one of those cases above, where our Newsletter has been rejected because "International access is not allowed" [written in Spanish]. We have omitted the name of the recipient in this particular case to avoid retaliation and further official repression.
