gummy Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuestHouse Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dantilley Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Blocked for me. What is the world coming to when even the BBC is blocked? Really hope this was an accident... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarragona Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 I've been on the BBC site for a while. Not blocked for Samutprakan, True. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantilley Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 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).

CNN was okay earlier as well 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?
