Hi all. I’m online again.
Last 6 December I decided to host a WikiLeaks mirror in my shared server in order to support them against all the censorship attempts they’ve had in the last days. It could be found at http://wikileaks.lainconscienciadepablo.net
My surprise, yesterday my hosting provider decided to suspend my account. You can read my two tweets about it here:

I’ve been fully following WikiLeaks news since the day they got DDoSed even before publishing the documents and I haven’t read about any censorship attempt against mirrors. Have I been the first one? And what are their reasons? Is it coming a new wave of censorship attacks against mirrors? Good luck so.
A SiteGround employee has forwarded my questions to the legal department. I’ll keep you up to date. You can follow me on twitter @_pablog.
And thanks all for your support.
UPDATE
I’ve been speaking with Marcia Hofmann from EFF and she did this great article! Boing Boing has also published it. Thanks, I really appreciate it!
