There is a heated debate all over about censorship on the Internet and<br>
giving those powers to entities like Google or Internet providers.<br>
<br>
Well, today I have a clear example why this powers should not be on such<br>
hands, and it is not even censorship ... but it has all the ingredients<br>
to create a lot of harm to some tens of thousands of people.<br>
<br>
The University of Málaga is a mid-sized University with about 35<br>
thousand students, 5 thousand staff and about another thousand or so of<br>
other kinds of community members.<br>
<br>
Today, Google has found that there were two web servers among several<br>
hundreds in our domain, and they have decided that the best way to<br>
protect the internet is blocking the whole <a href="http://uma.es" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">uma.es</a> domain. It even does<br>
not matter if the server name exists in DNS or not, you get a big red<br>
screen warning about the site.<br>
<br>
We are starting the term, so, there will be 35 thousand students trying<br>
to register on Monday and instead getting red warnings.<br>
<br>
There is no mail address or phone number to call for requesting a quick<br>
correction. And their automated process say it will happen before "72<br>
hours".<br>
<br>
Censorship at its best.<br>
