US Blocks Google Analytics in Cuba

HAVANA TIMES — The Cuban media have denounced the blocking from users on the island of the Internet application Google Analytics, which is a powerful statistics service for websites and blogs.

According to the Cubadebate website, when one attempts to access the service here in Cuba, a message is received referring to the US Treasury Department’s efforts to enforce sanctions established by the US “trade embargo” against the island.

In this way, Google Analytics has been added to those free tools and applications that Google denies potential Cuban users – a list that includes Google Earth, Google Desktop Search, Google Toolbar and Google Code Search.
