Reporters Without Borders (RSF) has published its 2004 report on obstacles to the free flow of information on the Web. The French organisation has noted that government attitudes towards the Internet have become more rigid both in countries where the media is muzzled but, in a new development, in countries with a strong democratic tradition. The report makes mention of a number of sub-Saharan countries where there are obstacles to digital freedom and in particular to Zimbabwe, one of the few African countries to have passed legislation specifically regulating online activities.
