Reporters Without Borders makes an annual report makes ranking of 180 countries in the world, ranging to freedom of information.

So far it seems that there is nothing maruti courier tracking surprising - the freedom of speech has in rich, well-developed and peaceful country, and the least - the poor, dictatorial and covered conflict countries. To see whether the data on their economies will confirm that.
