Nicaragua | Journalist Arrested for Criticizing Rising Cost of Living
The National Police arrested Nicaraguan journalist Elsbeth D’Anda last month for criticizing the rising cost of living on his television program La Cobertura. The regime loyalists deployed 20 officers and detained D’Anda at his home, confiscating his equipment before taking him to the notorious El Chipote prison. Several press freedom organizations have condemned the arbitrary detention as an attack on free expression. This arrest is the latest addition to a series of repressive measures by the Sandinista regime, which has crushed independent media through shutdowns, exiles, intimidations, and persecutions.

Pakistan | Regulated VPNs Deepen Financial and Digital Repression
Pakistan’s military regime escalated Internet censorship by mandating that all Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) be registered with the state. It even requires users to submit personal details such as national identity card numbers and IP addresses. This crackdown erodes the privacy and freedoms VPNs offer, leaving citizens increasingly vulnerable to surveillance and control and stifling the flow of information. In a country where Internet disruptions and bans on platforms like X are commonplace, restricted VPN access could limit access to financial freedom tools like Bitcoin (which to some degree rely on access to on and off ramps like digital asset exchanges). The regime may further isolate Pakistanis from decentralized financial systems by tightening its grip on digital platforms and consolidating its control over information and financial activity.

Tanzania | Blocks X Amid Political Repression
Tanzania’s government is cracking down on political dissent by blocking access to X, as reported by HRF grantee Netblocks, an organization dedicated to monitoring Internet freedom worldwide. According to Netblocks, “the incident comes as the police force issues an alert over alleged opposition party plans to raid police stations where political prisoners might be held.” Tanzania has witnessed an unprecedented crackdown from security forces, who have detained hundreds of opposition party members, including the chairman of the Chadema party, Freeman Mbwoe, and his deputy, Tundu Lissu. Other prominent critics, including Deusdedith Soka and Dioniz Kipanya, disappeared, while Shadrack Chaula, a TikToker critical of President Samia Suluhu Hassan, remains missing. These actions undermine democratic processes and escalate the government’s efforts to stifle dissent and control information. FinancialFreedomReport.org

Venezuela | Restricts Access to Binance and Blocks X Amid Post-Election Upheaval
Venezuelans are now struggling to access Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange. “Like several company websites in different segments in Venezuela, including social media, Binance’s pages have been facing access restrictions,” Binance announced. Binance is a peer-to-peer exchange popular with Venezuelans in search of US dollars, stablecoins, and Bitcoin to escape the regime’s ongoing devaluation of the bolívar. With Binance now inaccessible, many find themselves financially trapped and increasingly vulnerable in a country where 82% live in poverty and 53% live in extreme poverty. Alongside censoring Binance, Maduro has blocked access to social media platform X for 10 days, revoked passports arbitrarily, and detained over 2,000 activists, lawyers, opposition figures, and civilians protesting the fraudulent election results.

Pakistan | Escalating Internet Censorship
Pakistan is intensifying internet censorship by introducing a nationwide internet firewall and imposing stringent compliance requirements on Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority plans to screen and approve state-compliant VPNs. While the government cites national security as a reason for this action, critics and digital rights activists argue that these measures enhance the regime’s ability to monitor and control internet activity. The impact of these restrictions extends beyond communication barriers. They can also impact access to financial services, for example, by cutting off access to alternative currencies like Bitcoin (which have provided a liferaft for many Pakistanis but which was restricted in 2018). These policies contribute to a troubling pattern of digital and financial repression for the 235 million Pakistanis living under a hybrid authoritarian regime. Similar measures have been observed in China and Iran, where the regimes exert internet controls to suppress dissent and maintain their power. FinancialFreedomReport.org

Russia | Introduces New & Repressive Digital Asset Laws
Russia’s Federal Assembly recently passed two new digital asset laws with significant implications for Russians’ financial freedom. The first law legalizes cryptocurrency mining, and the second establishes an experimental framework for cross-border digital currency transactions. But these laws hint at troubling implications. While the first law permits mining, it confines it to mining entities registered with the Ministry of Digital Development and grants executive supervisory powers to the Central Bank of Russia. It also includes a ban on digital asset advertising. The second law, effective September 2024, mandates that all digital asset platforms obtain licenses from the central bank, which will oversee and collect detailed transaction data. HRF’s nonprofit Bitcoin adoption lead, Anna Chekhovich, warns that these laws place Bitcoin miners and exchanges under the control of the Central Bank while monitoring and targeting activists and nonprofit organizations that rely on digital assets like Bitcoin. Putin is consolidating control over digital assets while undermining financial freedom in Russia and moving forward with central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). FinancialFreedomReport.org

Saudi Arabia | Sentences Teacher to 20 Years Over Tweets
Saudi Arabia’s counterterrorism tribunal sentenced Asaad al-Ghamdi, a 47-year-old teacher, to 20 years in prison for social media activity that challenged “the religion and justice of the King and Crown Prince.” Al-Ghamdi’s posts included criticism of Vision 2030, a nationwide economic overhaul, and tweets mourning a deceased fellow activist, which resulted in law enforcement raiding his home at night and arresting him in front of his family. Al-Ghamdi was then held in solitary confinement for months and was refused proper care despite suffering from epilepsy. Similarly, his brother, Mohammed Al-Ghamdi, was convicted in 2023 over tweets linked to an anonymous Twitter account that criticized the regime’s economic policies and called for the release of political prisoners. For this, he was sentenced to death. Both of these sentences are part of Saudi Arabia’s repression of free expression and stifling of civil society, as evidenced by the regime going so far as to target dissidents' families to force compliance. HRF has called for the Al-Ghamdi brothers' immediate release and access to necessary medical care. FinancialFreedomReport.org
