Today, in tis country, Argentina, was made effective a law that was announced yesterday (Sunday, March 26th), which impedes the free entrance of books in this land.

The official reasoning? Some countries use lead in their inks.

How is it applied? If you ordered a book, it will be detained, and eventually you may or may not receive a notification that will cost you $5. With that, you must go from wherever in the country you live to the single International Airport we have in tis country. Then to free it you will have to pay a fee that will be around $291 (€50 euros, or $66.63 dollars) per book.

This is for both the single buyer who orders a book from, say, Amazon, to the big importer who brings stock to sell at bookstores.

Our current governement still brags on the international scene about how they're parangons of democracy and human rights.
