In 2003, eight of the 23 countries of the region had implemented a national Internet censorship or surveillances regime, with specially formed government departments or the security services official tasked to block unwanted content, and to police the population’s use of e-mail and the Internet. Censorship techniques vary from country to country reflecting the specific concerns of each government. Saudi Arabia takes a technology-based approach forcing all ISPs to channel traffic through a government controlled centre, which simply blocks any site thought to be in breach of “cultural or other norms” (Deibert and Villeneuve 2004). In Syria , access is denied to the entire Israeli Internet domain (ibid). In other countries authorities take a more hands on approach. In Tunisia, which is paradoxically the host country for the 2005 World Summit for Information Society, security services actively monitor Internet usage, and those found to be ”surfing" prohibited materials (such as Islamist websites) are subject to arrest and detention (RSF 2003) In Egypt, police officers pose as on-line homosexuals in order to entrap and prosecute those who respond to their advances (HRW 2003). In perhaps the most extreme case, the entire Palestinian telecommunications systems is routed by way of Israeli providers to the Israeli security services, which facilitates the identification and tracking of Palestinians, and has been used to carry out targeted assassinations (Ben-David 2000).
