Servers in country
Providers with exit locations in Bolivia: a server here gives you an address in the country. The register’s table records no mandate for VPN operators here; the briefing below sets out what the law asks of providers.
Providers with exit locations in a country — a fact about a network, kept deliberately apart from where the company is registered. Only providers whose country list has a source appear: a provider that publishes nothing simply does not show up, which is a criterion already in the data rather than an editorial one.
Bolivia’s telecommunications law makes private communications inviolable and secret, and its regulation bars internet access providers from blocking lawful content, applications or services unless the regulator verifies a technical impossibility. The law’s list of provider duties contains no duty to retain traffic data.
Law 164 of 8 August 2011 requires operators and providers to guarantee the inviolability and secrecy of communications and to protect users’ personal data and privacy, save for what norms establish (art. 56). Its duties for operators and providers (art. 59) include supplying information to the regulator, the ATT, and complying with instructions and plans issued in emergencies and for the security of the State. The list contains no duty to retain traffic data.
Art. 89 treats personal email as postal correspondence within the constitutional inviolability. Whether a VPN operator is an operator or provider under Law 164 is not established.
Art. 92(IV) of Supreme Decree 1391 (24 October 2012), which regulates Law 164, forbids internet access providers, barring a technical impossibility verified by the ATT, to block, interfere with, discriminate against, hinder or restrict any lawful content, application or service.
Under art. 16 of the Law against racism and all forms of discrimination (Law 045 of 8 October 2010), a media outlet that authorises and publishes racist or discriminatory ideas faces economic sanctions and suspension of its operating licence, subject to regulation.
Law 045 added art. 281 quater to the Penal Code: spreading by any means ideas based on racial superiority or hatred, or inciting violence or persecution on racist or discriminatory grounds, carries one to five years’ imprisonment, and a media worker or owner cannot plead immunity. Verbal insults on racist or discriminatory grounds draw community service of forty days to eighteen months and a fine, heavier when made through the media.
Art. 363 ter, added by Law 1768 of 1997, punishes unauthorised access to or alteration of computer data that harms its holder with community service up to a year or a fine up to 200 days.
Law 164 states as a principle that private conversations and communications over telecommunications and information technologies are inviolable and secret and may not be intercepted, diverted, published or divulged except in cases determined by law. The order of the rows is the security score, and a server’s location is not a recommendation.
Bolivia
Only a provider that publishes a country list appears here at all — 41 of the 77 on file. The other 27 are not missing research: they publish no list, and U02_server_countries is unknown for them rather than filled from the number their marketing claims.
A provider that says “100+ countries” and enumerates none gets no page on any of them, and the count printed on its own record is the length of the list, never the claim. With 41 providers behind 180 countries, the long tail of these pages carries one or two rows.
