Thank you for the link. The interesting part of the document for me is not the "usual" condemnation of media manipulation, but the clear argument *for* censorship. This makes it an important read, (apparently/hopefully) coming from open source communities "on the ground".
"As Venezuelans, we are naturally against censorship of social networking applications as a matter of principle. However, we believe that the right to live trumps the right to free information." [...] "We are defenders of freedom of expression and free information, but we insist: above that right is the right to live. If the company Zello, or any other national or foreign company, will not help to preserve this right, we will support the Venezuelan government actions to prevent that company from operating in Venezuela."
