Bbc.co.uk Blocked

[gummy]

Last few minutes bbc.co.uk appears to have been blocked, anybody else have problems or know the reason ?

[sinom]

No problem from Singapore - just been on it

cheers

[Tarragona]

Works for me and I'm in Thailand.

[gummy]

Yes I meant from Thailand by ministry of information and communication technology. Was on it, appeared to have nothing inflammatory or even a mention of Thailand and then it became blocked at approx 16.32 Thai time

[GuestHouse]

The BBC are running a report on the PM going into hospital and rumours that he may resign. Reason for blocking the site? I don't know but it is the only Thai content I could find.

bbc.co.uk works for me in BKK but cnn.com is blocked!

[gummy]

Back on again now, perhaps someone "clicked" wrong page to block !!

[Tarragona]

It sounds like they're practising just in case.

BBC.co.uk blocked again 19:56

[dantilley]

Blocked for me. What is the world coming to when even the BBC is blocked? Really hope this was an accident...

[Tarragona]

I've been on the BBC site for a while.

Not blocked for Samutprakan, True.

Home page is not blocked by the way, neither are many other sub-sections, e.g. weather, history, children, etc. But if you click into anywhere in the news or sports areas, so that the address has new.bbc.co.uk at the beginning, then it becomes blocked.

Not for me (I've just gone to http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/6543951.stm).

Navigating news and sports pages without problem (CNN and Google are fine too).

Clicking that link brings up the dreaded green screen for me. In Bangkok by the way, connected to True.

Now 8:55pm and same for me.

Get the front page home menu, but then the dreaded green screen when trying to access any links from the home page.

Just shows that the powers-that-be are quite happy with feeble, complacent government mouth pieces.

Did CNN manage to talk about anything except the father of Anna-Nichol's baby and the number of Americans who have injured themselves with a Wii whilst watching American Idol today?

Well now it's clear !

A nice little "training", like a rehersal.

New TV chanels, and news websites...

The day they will receive the order, they will be able to cut everything. At the finger tips.
