[kictanet] Is Kenya Putting the Chill on Internet Freedoms?

[Walubengo J]

@Lillian,
Interesting piece on internet freedoms in .KE
Whereas the incidents cited are true, I still think the freedoms gains in the new 2010 constitutions are far-reaching and it would require several years of sustained and systemic attacks for any regime to effectively claw them back.  

I have not been to Kampala in recent times but on a comparative and lighter note:- I hear M7 might have put .UG  where Mo1 had contained us in the mid-late 1990s in terms of freedoms :-). 

It would be nice if you also shared the report on Internet Freedoms in Uganda (if available).
rgs.

Dear listers,

Greetings from Kampala! 

I wanted to share with you our our recent briefing on recent developments on Kenya in regard to Internet freedoms. See: http://www.cipesa.org/2015/03/is-kenya-putting-the-chill-on-internet-freedoms/ 

We hope to see some positive developments in the coming months.

Regards,
Lillian
