What a tremendously uneducated comment. Freedom of expression has not being limited in Spain in any way or form, not at all. The apk was removed because a judge (not politics, not the police) confirmed that the app was used to organize violent manifestations. And GitHub had to legally comply with the warrant. No action is being taken to stop manifestations, only to stop the organization of violence.
In case you want to also made the uneducated point that the violence is necessary, I want to remind you that the fact that people manifest doesn't automatically mean there exist oppression from the state, as in this case, there is none.

In Spain we have rappers who have been sentenced to jail time for having lyrics criticizing the King. If that isn't limiting freedom of expression, I don't know what is.

- lentil_soup 7y agoI think he's talking about the Github takedown notice, not about Spain in general

- tbatchelli 7y agoI believe the OP is talking about Spain in general when she/he writes "Freedom of expression has not being limited in Spain in any way or form, not at all.", wouldn't you agree?
- gerardvivancos 7y agoWhat’s the name of the judge?
- mindB 7y ago1. Please let's not start name-calling. The fact that you disagree with my beliefs does not necessarily make them or anything I say uneducated. 2. The fact that a judge was the one who ordered the limiting of freedom does not make it any less limiting. 3. Censoring an entire platform because it was used for evil purposes (I haven't personally confirmed that this is the case) is easily within the definition of limiting freedom of expression.
