In line with international standards, the blocking of websites should not serve as a tool to control content, restrict the flow of information across borders, or as a sanction in response to critical coverage. Websites should only be blocked, based on objective and transparent criteria defined in law. Possible limitations should be content-specific, while general bans of whole websites should be avoided. The websites in question and the general public should be informed when such blockings are in place and provided with an opportunity to appeal.
