Ortega and Murillo intensify internet censorship
Nicaraguan government tightens internet censorship through new regulatory powers.
The Ortega–Murillo government has intensified internet censorship in Nicaragua, using Law No. 1223 to grant the Nicaraguan Institute of Telecommunications and Postal Services (TELCOR) broad authority over online content and providers. Opposition groups warn this undermines freedom of expression, with TELCOR able to demand detailed statistical and georeferenced data from audiovisual operators and ISPs.
