Is it just me or all the previously blocked websites are now up for browsing?

if u try adult any obvious websites such as s*x.com, or torrent sites, you will find you are able to view it without any messages from the censorship ministry

I'm using True Hispeed btw

Dont ask me how I stumbled across this... :o

Well I'll be honest, and say that looking at this I tried a site which has been off-limits for years {given that it presents elements of Thai sexuality that many are not comfortable with}, and it came straight up.

All puns intended.

Just to add I've just tried two key proxy provision sites {not that I'd use such a thing, heaven forfend}, and for the first time in years they both came up!

Regards

PS I wonder for how long though?

But you see the rest of us can see youtube on TRUE from Bangkok.

So like reimar told you - don't make blanket statements. It is not the government that is blocking youtube. Take up yout gripe with your ISP.

Or get a different ISP.
