geoffphuket Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 I can't open my favourite video site www.veoh.com today. My worst fears tell me that it's being blocked. Appreciated if some of you in different locations would try it and report back. Thanks in advance geoffphuket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Clifton Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 (edited) Same message I get for youtube... VEOH was blocked yesterday for the first time on my side. Plain ridiculous. ขออภัย บริษัท ทีโอที จำกัด (มหาชน) ในฐานะขององค์กรของคนไทย ได้ระงับการเชื่อมต่อมาที่เว็บไซต์นี้ื่ เนื่องจากมีเนื้อหา ข้อความ รูปภาพ ที่ไม่เหมาะสม ที่ได้ส่งผลกระทบต่อจิตใจของคนไทยทั้งประเทศจนไม่อาจยอมรับได้ Give it a bit more time and the only entertainment on your computer will be under START/PROGRAMS.

Guest Reimar Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Quite funny! And I use the TRUE DNS Server 203.144.207.29 (49) also! Than there is a question why I can connect at Samut Prakarn and TexasRanger can't at Bankok on TRUE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Reimar Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Just try to connect via remote to an server in Bangkok and try to connect from there via TRUE SME and: Can not! Retest here at Samut Prakarn and it works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't think why they've picked on VEOH, unless they're trying to save Thailand's pathetic internet bandwidth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Clifton Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 For a few days now, movies downloaded from google, not blocked but the download will stop after a few minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoffphuket Posted August 23, 2007 Author Share Posted August 23, 2007 It would appear we're not the only ones. The VEOH forum is loaded with complaints: http://forums.veoh.com/viewtopic.php?t=7784 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wpcoe Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Add to the list of blocked sites: www.metacafe.com which is another video site. I used to be able to watch, but haven't been able to access it for several weeks in Thailand now. (Using TT&T MaxNet ADSL.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevykanteve Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 I can't access VEOH also. This is literally the first time I've had problems with it. I'm on Maxnet and receive a "Can not Find Server" message (same as I get with YT). I hope this is just a temporary glitch. I hope... If not, perhaps someone's worried that videos related to possible, future political disturbances will be uploaded for all the world to see.

(Using TT&T MaxNet ADSL.) Can't load metacafe.com either. It looks like we've lost access to that as well. I thought the government were easing up on restricting web sites. What's Thailand to fear from them ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAS Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Kalasin, TOT ADSL. Metacafe and VEOH both give me that ###### censor screen in Thai. I've noticed for the last few weeks that more and more sites are being blocked, even some US political discussion sites that have nothing to do with Thailand. This is getting ridiculous! I do notice that none of the porn video sites are being blocked though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevykanteve Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Just checked again on my Maxnet and, yes, both VEOH as well as METACAFE cannot be accessed. I used VEOH moslly for downloading cartoons for my children and classic movies for the family in general. The clock continues to tick backwards in Thailand. I'd like to say more, but I don't want to be banned from this site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RKASA Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 I have never used them, but tried it to see if its working and metacafe has a ban sign on ToT. ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
