17. Ask the people in Cuba where the government limits access:
Cuba law tightens internet access

The Cuban Government is tightening its control over internet access.
A new law coming into force on Saturday makes it impossible for many Cubans to dial up the internet from their home telephone lines.

The move has been criticised by the human rights group Amnesty International.

Cuba says that, given its limited resources, it needs to ensure that the internet is primarily used for the social good.
