Cuba scores 19 and is classified as not free in digital access
The digital-freedom assessment places the country among those with the most severe Internet restrictions and gives it Latin America's worst result.
Cuba again appears among the countries with the greatest restrictions on Internet access. The assessment comes from Freedom House's Freedom on the Net 2026 global digital-freedom report. It keeps Cuba among the most restricted cases and classifies the country as not free. The description combines a qualitative category with a numerical measure of Internet conditions.
Cuba received 19 points out of 100. The same account places it as the worst-rated country in Latin America. That regional ranking adds a comparative reference to the score and presents it as the lowest result in the region. The report was published Thursday.
The not-free classification summarizes Cuba's result, while the score provides a specific measure and the regional comparison positions it against other Latin American countries. The information also says Cuba remains among the world's most restricted cases. It therefore offers both a global view of Internet access and a regional ranking.
Identifying Freedom House as the author establishes the source of the classification and score. The information concerns Cuba's Internet access and expresses the result through a category, a numerical score and a regional comparison, while the worldwide reference places the country among those with the most severe restrictions.
