Internet regulations: From the US to Australia

Kuwait
Internet filtering targets pornography, gay and lesbian content. Secular content and websites that are critical of Islam are also censored. Some websites that are related to religions other than Islam are blocked even though they are not necessarily critical of Islam.

In August 2007, a Kuwaiti journalist was arrested for comments posted on his blog by an anonymous user who insulted the emir of Kuwait.

On September 22, 2008, Kuwaiti authorities called for the blocking of YouTube in response to several videos declared "offensive to Muslims."
