It was pointless to close Radio Katwe site

SIR – It is absurd to see a government trying to close down a website over reporting “falsehoods”. Like it has been said before, if the Government knows beyond reasonable doubt that what is being written is malicious and false, it should just try to defend itself through the media and campaigns as opposed to shutting the website down. I don’t agree with all the information published on the site, but I certainly agree with some. Shame on all Internet Service Providers. I thought you were smarter than that. Blocking a website by domain or IP address does not necessarily restrict access to it. People are now enlightened on many other forms of technology and trust me, they will continue to access the site whether you like it or not. Leaders, please be accountable to the electorate.
