Vietnam bans talking about "current affairs" online
http://j.mp/1323NiS (BBC)
"A controversial law banning Vietnamese online users from discussing
current affairs has come into effect. The decree, known as Decree 72,
says blogs and social websites should not be used to share news
articles, but only personal information. The law also requires
foreign internet companies to keep their local servers inside
Vietnam."
