Problem:Venezuela’s central bank sued to block a popular U.S.-based website from publishing allegedly misleading black-market exchange rates for dollars, claiming the move is part of a conspiracy to manipulate the South American country’s currency. 
  
 Banco Central De Venezuela accused a former Venezuelan army officer of using the dolartoday.com website to destabilize President Nicolas Maduro’s government and reap millions of dollars by falsifying exchange rates. The site promotes itself as the “authoritative source” of the daily exchange rate for the bolivar, the country’s currency, according to the lawsuit. 
  
 Likening the site to cyber-terrorism, the central bank said “publication of phony black market rates sabotages Venezuela’s tiered currency exchange rates“ and exacerbates existing inflationary pressures, according to the complaint filed Friday in federal court in Delaware. 
  
 Venezuela has battled spiraling inflation for years and last month saw the value of its currency drop below 800 bolivars per dollar on the black market. That meant the country’s biggest currency note of 100 bolivars was worth about 12 U.S. cents. 
  
 The government maintained official rates of 6.3, 13.5 and about 200 bolivars per dollar for authorized purchases of items deemed essential in September. The Venezuelan government tightly controls the bolivar to help subsidize some imports. Venezuelans turn to the widely traded black market when they can’t get their hands on regulated currency. 
  
 Failed Coup 
  
 The central bank alleges Gustavo Diaz Vivas, a former Venezuelan army colonel who participated in a failed coup in 2002, serves as a director of the website’s Delaware-based parent company. 
  
 Vivas and others “have wreaked, economic and reputational harm on the Central Bank by impeding its ability to manage the Republic’s economy and foreign exchange system,” according to the complaint. 
  
 Vivas now lives in Hoover, Alabama, near Birmingham, according to the suit. The former colonel was granted asylum status in the U.S. in 2005 and is part of a group of Venezuelan exiles who oppose Maduro’s government, according to the Tuscaloosa News in Alabama. 
  
 Dolartoday.com said it was aware of the lawsuit and had no immediate comment on it. No telephone listing could be found for Vivas in the Birmingham area. 
  
 Corruption Accusations 
  
 Besides tracking the bolivar’s fall, the website circulates news and rumors critical of Venezuela’s socialist government, with corruption accusations often blanketing its homepage. On Friday, it pegged the bolivar’s trading at around 820 per greenback, down about 14 percent from last week. 
  
 Dolartoday.com is drawing about 1 million Venezuelan visitors daily, making it one of the county’s most popular websites, according to the suit. The site’s mobile app also is one of the most-downloaded programs in the country. 
  
 The Venezuelan government began blocking access to the site within its borders in 2013 because of concerns about misleading information. Vivas and other officials have frustrated those efforts by setting up so-called “mirror sites,” according to the suit. 
  
 Venezuela’s central bankers are asking a judge in Wilmington, Delaware, to bar Vivas and other dolartoday.com officials from “continuing to publish the false and fraudulent DT rate” on its site and other platforms, such as Twitter and Facebook, according to court filings. 
  
 The case is Banco Central De Venezuela v. DolarToday LLC, 15-cv-00965, U.S. District Court, District of Delaware (Wilmington). ||||| HOOVER, Ala.—Public Enemy No. 1 of Venezuela’s revolutionary government is Gustavo Díaz, a Home Depot Inc. employee in central Alabama. 
  
 On his lunch breaks from the hardware section, Mr. Díaz, 60 years old, does more than anyone else to set the price of everything from rice to aspirin to cars in his native Venezuela, influencing the inflation rate and swaying millions of dollars of daily currency transactions. 
  
 How?... ||||| ''We were not discouraging people,'' the official said. ''We were sending informal, subtle signals that we don't like this guy. We didn't say, 'No, don't you dare,' and we weren't advocates saying, 'Here's some arms; we'll help you overthrow this guy.' We were not doing that.'' 
  
 The disclosures come as rights advocates, Latin American diplomats and others accuse the administration of having turned a blind eye to coup plotting activities, or even encouraged the people who temporarily removed Mr. Chávez. Such actions would place the United States at odds with its fellow members of the Organization of American States, whose charter condemns the overthrow of democratically elected governments. 
  
 In the immediate aftermath of the ouster, the White House spokesman, Ari Fleischer, suggested that the administration was pleased that Mr. Chávez was gone. ''The government suppressed what was a peaceful demonstration of the people,'' Mr. Fleischer said, which ''led very quickly to a combustible situation in which Chávez resigned.'' 
  
 That statement contrasted with a clear stand by other nations in the hemisphere, which all condemned the removal of a democratically elected leader. 
  
 Mr. Chávez has made himself very unpopular with the Bush administration with his pro-Cuban stance and mouthing of revolutionary slogans -- and, most recently, by threatening the independence of Venezuela's state-owned oil company, Petróleos de Venezuela, the third-largest foreign supplier of American oil. 
  
 Whether or not the administration knew about the pending action against Mr. Chávez, critics note that it was slow to condemn the overthrow and that it still refuses to acknowledge that a coup even took place. 
  
 One result, according to the critics, is that in its zeal to rid itself of Mr. Chávez, the administration has damaged its credibility as a chief defender of democratically elected governments. And even though they deny having encouraged Mr. Chávez's ouster, administration officials did not hide their dismay at his restora tion.

 Asked whether the administration now recognizes Mr. Chávez as Venezuela's legitimate president, one administration official replied, ''He was democratically elected,'' then added, ''Legitimacy is something that is conferred not just by a majority of the voters, however.'' 
  
 A senior administration official said today that the anti-Chávez group had not asked for American backing and that none had been offered. Still, one American diplomat said, Mr. Chávez was so distressed by his opponents' lobbying in Washington that he sent officials from his government to plead his case there. 
  
 Mr. Chávez returned to power on Sunday, after two days. The Bush administration swiftly laid the blame for the episode on him, pointing out that troops loyal to him had fired on unarmed civilians and wounded more than 100 demonstrators.

 Mr. Fleischer, the White House spokesman, stuck to that approach today, saying Mr. Chávez should heed the message of his opponents and reach out to ''all the democratic forces in Venezuela.'' 
  
 ''The people of Venezuela have sent a clear message to President Chávez that they want both democracy and reform,'' he said. ''The Chávez administration has an opportunity to respond to this message by correcting its course and governing in a fully democratic manner.'' 
  
 On Sunday, President Bush's national security adviser, Condoleezza Rice, expressed hopes that Mr. Chávez would deal with his opponents in a less ''highhanded fashion.'' 
  
 But to some critics, it was the Bush administration that had displayed arrogance in initially bucking the tide of international condemnation of the action against Mr. Chavez, who was democratically elected in 1998. 
  
 Arturo Valenzuela, the Latin America national security aide in the Clinton administration, accused the Bush administration of running roughshod over more than a decade of treaties and agreements for the collective defense of democracy. Since 1990, the United States has repeatedly invoked those agreements at the Organization of American States to help restore democratic rule in such countries as Haiti, Guatemala and Peru. 
  
 Mr. Valenzuela, who now heads the Latin American studies department at Georgetown University here, warned that the nations in the region might view the administration's tepid support of Venezuelan democracy as a green light to return to 1960's and 1970's, when power was transferred from coup to coup.

 ''I think it's a very negative development for the principle of constitutional government in Latin America,'' Mr. Valenzuela said. ''I think it's going to come back and haunt all of us.'' 
  
 Administration officials insist that they are firmly behind efforts at the Organization of American States to determine what happened in Venezuela and restore democratic rule. The secretary general of the O.A.S., César Gaviria, left today for Caracas, the Venezuelan capital, and the organization is scheduled to meet in Washington on Thursday. 
  
 Still, critics say, there were several signs that the administration was too quick to rally around the businessman Pedro Carmona Estanga as Mr. Chávez's successor. 
  
 One Democratic foreign policy aide complained that the administration, in phone calls to Congress on Friday, reported that Mr. Chávez had resigned, even though officials now concede that they had no evidence of that. 
  
 And on Saturday, the administration supported an O.A.S. resolution condemning ''the alteration of constitutional order in Venezuela'' only after learning that Mr. Chávez had regained control, Latin American diplomats said. 
  
 One official said political hard-liners in the administration might have ''gone overboard'' in proclaiming Mr. Chávez's ouster before the dust settled. 
  
 The official said there were competing impulses within the administration, signaling a disagreement on the extent of trouble posed by Mr. Chávez, who has thumbed his nose at American officials by maintaining ties with Cuba, Libya and Iraq. |||||
Solution:
When he's not selling padlocks at Home Depot in Hoover, Ala., 60-year-old Gustavo Diaz is heading what Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro calls an "economic war" against his country, laid out in full by the Wall Street Journal. Diaz's instrument: his DolarToday.com website, which Venezuela insists posts fake black-market exchange rates to manipulate the country's currency. The site has already courted two failed lawsuits by Venezuela's central bank, and the government has also unleashed hackers on it. "DolarToday is the Empire's strategy to push down the currency and overthrow Maduro. DolarToday is the enemy of the people," VP Aristobulo Isturiz said in early 2016 (the Journal notes "Empire" refers to the US). Not that Diaz is simply a bored Alabama guy with a penchant for numbers: He's actually a retired Venezuelan army colonel who assisted in a two-day 2002 coup against then President Hugo Chavez. Diaz is also now a US citizen after seeking asylum in 2005 in Alabama, where his siblings lived. He runs his site—which mixes daily exchange rates with unflattering news about the government, with rates calculated by scanning social media for transaction requests, then comparing that average rate with that seen in underground Venezuelan exchange institutions—with two other Venezuelan expats. "It's ironic that with DolarToday in Alabama, I do more damage to the government than I did as a military man in Venezuela," he notes. (A reporter's struggle to find food in Venezuela.)
