All the sources that you are quoting are US or EU funded organisations that have a clearly stated agenda against the current Belarussian government. I am not saying this is a perfect government but they are not monitoring the email of tourists or anyone else.
If things were as bad as you claim, then Dmitry would no doubt complain about it.
If I had been monitored or censored I would certainly tell everyone here about it.
It's certainly ok to complain about real and genuine censorship issue.
That would be for example the "Great Chinese firewall" which I have first hand experience of from work, and which is really stifling and restrictive. Belarus has nothing like that.
And how about the one about throwing stones when you are in a glass house....?
Bradley Manning..... ? Jammie Thomas....? the list goes on. And here is the clip of the American monitoring station that spies on European internet users from England. How do you explain that?
I just get really annoyed when people spread lies about things that they really haven't got a clue about.
I am not saying I am an expert, but in contrast to Eric, Scott and Pavelov I have visitedd this country, and Dmitry K. lives there.
And Scott, if you are actually inclined to believe in this type of nonsense, then I think for your own sake that you would be wisest to simply remain in the US during your holidays instead of travelling abroad, least of all to Belarus.
