The independent journalist Camila Acosta suffered the hacking of her Facebook account on February 26, which already had more than 5,000 followers.
The journalist spent five days trying to enter and protect her account, which she managed to recover only on March 3.
“I just got the Facebook account back. Since Friday, February 26, I had been hacked; right after the interview he did with the ambassador of the European Union in Cuba, Alberto Navarro, was published. Apparently State Security was very bothered by this. I thank the organizations that helped me recover this account and Facebook for responding and agreeing to return it. We continue… ”, wrote Acosta.

Acosta explained to CubaNet that last week he tried to enter his account and the system indicated that his password was incorrect, so he tried to change it and then received a notification that someone else, named Javier Acosta, had already tried to access his account.
The network asked him for a photograph of his identity document, and so he was able to enter, but he noticed that his personal information was modified.
“On one of the occasions, I asked a friend to enter my profile and that’s when we realized that personal information had changed, this time my email,” he adds.
Since she began her campaign against Decree-Law 370, which criminalizes free expression on social networks and other virtual media, still personal, the journalist has suffered several attacks of this type.
On this occasion, he contacted Redes Ayuda, a “Venezuelan non-governmental organization in charge of defending Human Rights through digital and analog social networks”.
The NGO at the same time referred her to Access Now, another “international organization dedicated among other things to activism for the defense of the open and free internet”, which temporarily blocked her account to prevent further modifications to her personal information.
The journalist has had her Facebook account hacked around five times in recent months, which has also stolen personal information.
“They (the authorities) know that the networks are our battlefield, if they take us out of there we have complaints against the regime, work, followers … In addition, they steal personal data through Messenger,” said Acosta.
In addition to the intrusions to her profile, the journalist once saw her private conversations published on an alleged blog of State Security.
This time, the event came after he interviewed the Ambassador of the European Union (EU) in Cuba, Alberto Navarro.
