Tunisia blocked access to both popular video-sharing websites, Youtube and Dailymotion, in order to prevent Tunisian netizens from watching video content featuring testimonies from former political prisoners and human rights activists. However, and as shown in this example, Tunisian cyberactivists from Nawaat.org are successful enough in besieging Carthage presidential palace, on Google Earth, with tens of human rights videos.
And you can explore more human rights videos when flying over other Tunisian regions and cities Google like Bizerte, Kef, etc.
Please, feel free to download this Google Earth kmz file (Keyhole Markup Zip) which will start Google Earth and fly you to Carthage Presidential palace.

To activate the Google YouTube layer, you have to navigate to the “Layers” menu on the left-hand side of Google Earth (see image above). Expanding the “Gallery” node in the layers tree will expose the “Youtube” layer. Once you select the YouTube button all the Google YouTube icons appear all over the globe.
