The question isn't whether or not there are laws against it, it's how you enforce the laws. For example, the USSR had to jam radio stations to stop external content getting into it's borders. Would a country like Belarus try to do the same type of thing when it comes to satellite internet?
- petre 6y agoI donct know if they jammed anything, they built radios and TV sets with Eastern band. But that was easily circumvented.
- ivalm 6y agoThey explicitly jammed radio free Europe , for example.
- petre 6y agoWho did so, the USSR? A certain Eastern leader paid Carlos the Jackal to perpetrate a terror attack at Radio Free Europe. Of course that didn't stop shut it down. https://pressroom.rferl.org/a/carlos-the-jackal-and-the-bombing-of-rfe-rl-munich-1981/30554421.html https://pressroom.rferl.org/a/carlos-the-jackal-and-the-bomb...
- ivalm 6y agoUSSR did. My dad lived in Belarus during the time (I was born there as well but we moved to the US when I was a kid) and said it was a bit of cat and mouse game re exact wavelength to catch the American radio. Ofc my memory is post soviet and there was no blocking but we still listened to it in the 90s.
