No talking, no tweeting and no travel for a year -- these are some of the conditions of Chinese dissident artist Ai Weiwei's release from more than two months in detention, a source close to the family told Reuters on Friday.

Ai is not allowed to post anything on Twitter or accept interviews for a year, underscoring Beijing's efforts to muzzle dissent.

"The key thing is these two conditions -- the media and the Internet," the source said.

Ai has freedom of movement within Beijing, but before he "goes out, he needs to report his whereabouts to them" for a year, the source said, but declined to elaborate who Ai needs to report to.
