I think all these cases of censure need a reaction from ISOC.

FYI, since May 2006, the top five most popular Ethiopian web sites
(including CyberEthiopia) and several blogs have been blocked and are
inaccessible across Ethiopia. The apparent objective is to prevent the
dissemination of information that is critical of the current regime.

RSF had also reported the censorship along with other media watchdogs
and had called on the relevant ministries in Ethiopia, but no reaction
so far.
