Title: Censorship in Cuba

Introduction: 



The digital war on freedom of speech is being fought mainly over the small island of Cuba, in the Caribbean. Cuba is one of the top ten countries that is most censored by their government. Did you know that Cuba as its own Internet, and it consists of a small e-mail website for communication. It is also commonly known that media, such as television, radio, even music is manipulated by their government if they are foreign. The government accuses social networks, blogs and some articles to having a destabilizing influence, and being manipulated by American culture to defy authorities. It is almost unbelievable how Raul Castro, Cuba’s president, keeps the population under his tight wing.
