Blog del Narco Removed by Google, Reinstated
 Google Translate. I originally found out about this through a comment in the link provided which included links to a few other Mexican narco blogs as well..The Spanish language Mexican drug war blog Blog del Narco has been taken down apparently by Google, then apparently reinstated. No announcement or news of the event had been made public by anyone, however, on the blog's Twitter feed, it was announced at about 2150 EDST the blog was removed, but the owner is working to bring the blog back online. The apparent owner earlier said the blog's removal was "por politicas", and has yet to back away from that assertion. A brief time later, the blog was reinstated however, the technical contact said he was having issues with lost videos and photos. Blog del Narco, which has made a tremendous splash in providing in depth and often graphic accounts of the ongoing Mexican drug and gang war, was started in March and has since ascended into one of the top outlets of drug war news in Mexico. You can find Rantburg articles about Blog del Narco here and here. Posted by: badanov 2010-08-27 |
