Ethiopia has lifted social media restrictions, including Facebook, Instagram, Telegram, TikTok, and YouTube, after four months. The restrictions were imposed following the anti-government protests related to tensions within the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahido Church, and despite a March deal, they remained for more than four months.
The restrictions have drawn criticism from human rights organizations, the Media Council of Ethiopia, and the Committee to Protect Journalists, who stated that the blockage violates freedom of expression and access to information. Ethiopians used VPNs to access the internet and social media during the blackout, while the state-owned Ethiopian Telecom claimed that the closure was beyond its control.

In advance of legislative elections, Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen has ordered internet service providers to restrict the websites of Radio Free Asia and other news portals. They were accused with distorting the government's reputation and failing to adhere to the business requirements of the Ministry of Information by the Telecommunications Regulatory Authority of Cambodia.
The regulator blocked access to several websites, including Radio Free Asia's (RFA) Khmer and English websites, as well as their RFA's Khmer language Twitter page. Additionally, they blocked the Kamnotra website, which shares users' personal infromation, produced by the Cambodian Center for Independent Media (CCIM).
RFA has denounced the restriction and called it a breach of Cambodian law and an attempt to control information before the election on 23 July 2023. Every democracy that upholds free speech and a free press needs access to timely, reliable news and information. RFA stated that during this crucial period it will continue to inform the citizens of Cambodia.
