>From Bad to Worse: Online Repression in the Gulf
http://j.mp/11EILYa (EFF)
"In Kuwait, dozens imprisoned in an effort to stifle online dissent.
In the United Arab Emirates, a sentence of 10 months in prison for
describing a court hearing without "honesty and in bad faith." And in
Qatar, a draft cybercrime law that threatens the relative freedom of
expression enjoyed by residents."
