Blocking of the pages of any media, whether on the web or in social networks, can and should be done ONLY with a final decision of the Albanian courts.

If the public's access is blocked, without a court decision, except in the cases provided by law, it constitutes a clear violation of freedom of information and freedom of expression and violation of free speech. KSHM calls on social network platforms to avoid media blocking, and especially without a prior notification of those affected", the statement underlined.
