Gen Y is back

Yoani Sanchez tweeted yesterday that Generación Y, her internationally infamous blog on life in Cuba, is now accessible on the island. Today, she wrote on Generación Y:  “Después de tres años, mi espacio virtual vuelve a ser avistado dentro de Cuba.” [After three years, my virtual space can be seen inside of Cuba.] Reuters reported that Cuban officials who were questioned about this change declined comment. Yoani thinks that it may be related to an upcoming IT conference in Havana. Regardless of the reason, she writes that she considers it a “citizens’ victory over the demons of control.”
