An independent news agency calling itself the Agencia Libre Asociada (ALAS) was launched on 19 September in the presence of Guillermo Fariñas Hernández, the winner of the 2006 Reporters Without Borders cyber-freedom prize.

Reporters Without Borders hails the initiative and wishes the agency good luck.
