Belarus Moves to Limit Online Dating
An AP newswire article, via Yahoo! News, reports that:
Belarusian lawmakers on Wednesday passed legislation that would crack down on Internet dating and online spouse searches in the latest in a series of stringent government controls backed by authoritarian President Alexander Lukashenko.
Authorities say the measure, which was passed 101-1 by the subservient lower house of parliament, is intended to help halt human trafficking in the ex-Soviet nation.
The legislation would place new restrictions on organizations that promote dating or that help match potential suitors with spouses, particularly via the Internet.
