Belarus Regulates Internet

Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko issued a decree regulating the national segment of the internet. All internet providers will be accountable to a special-purpose governmental authority controlled by the Presidential Administration. Belarus legal entities may use only domains in the national “.BY” zone. If an internet user breaches law, the authorities may require the provider to switch the user off from the internet. All internet cafĂ© customers must be identified and reported to authorities on demand.
