Dear friends,
I received the following disturbing message from friends in Minsk today and
translated it. Feel free to forward it further. Please excuse cross-postings.

New Rules for Working on the Internet in Belarus
The President's Administration has made a special decree obligating all
users of the Internet in the country to register with the police. Everyone
who has an electronic mail address in a state-run or independent network
must report to the local regional station.
According to the official version, this is linked with the battle against
anti-governmental information and with the suppression of
enemy-of-the-people provocation. The deadline for registration is 30 days.
Serious punishments, which are not outlined in the text of the decree, await
those who do not register. According to the opinion of a highly-placed
Administration official, the new decree will assist "the healthy development
of the information industry of the country."
