Accurate snapshot of the internet state in Cuba, well written from a american point of view.

As the cofounder of one of the most popular cuban websites, revolico.com, I'm suffering this since 2007. We launch revolico on December '07, on march '08 the government blocked our IPs, then when we circumvent this censorship, they made a DNS spoofing nationwide.

Nevertheless revolico is still the #1 classifieds ads site of the island, way ahead of the government offering, our users are doing a lot of crazy and creative stuff to get acces to the site.

So Cuba, besides having an internet penetration of less than 5%, strongly censor the link, which is even sadder. I predict that access will increase in the near/medium term, but unfortunately proportionally with the censorship.

Have you ever writted a full story in regards how you operate the site and how users from the island are able to access it? I would love to read it.

Cuban authorities would also be very interested, I imagine.
