Hi, I'm from Venezuela. I live in Guarenas (and adyacent town to Caracas) and we close to the Capital (Caracas) have internet access, but in other states far from the bigger cities likes Maracaibo, Valencia, Caracas itself, or Maracay doesn't have connection because it's so slow it's like having nothing. Also, we do suffer eventually from power downs that can last minutes or hours (even days at some zones far from th bigger cities) and left us without any electricity and obviously withous any internet connection, as well as sudden blocks on Google (thanks to CONATEL bastards), and even blocking some News search on Google and keywords like "Dictadura".
The only thing we are kind of worried right now is that the National Guard with help from the SEBIN and the Police are trying to forcibly take people's phones and seeking anti-government images, chats, comments, etc, and looking ALL your private content without even an legal order, just to have you detained a few hours, stuck in the traffic, and sometimes taking people to jail just because they want... That assholes just threat people with their guns and stop their cars and then ask for the phones. It's as humilliating as horrible it sounds.
