    Article 35 of the Political Constitution of Republic of Guatemala expressly recognizes the right to freedom of expression of ideas in the following terms: Ideas can be expressed freely through any medium without prior censorship or authorization. This constitutional right cannot be restricted by any law or governmental decree.

    But it seems that Internet Service Providers CLARO, TIGO and MOVISTAR (Telefónica), the most important Internet Service Providers are ignoring the laws, Guatemalan users report blocked access to Web site since Friday afternoon. El Abismo de Tux called customer service and blogged about it. No clear answer from them.
