August 11, 201015 yr Author Problem with Chrome and Firefox (TOT). My guess is that some idiot has posted something nasty about the King and thus this is the response... You get get to your profile and by using certain links there you can get in to the feed but if you use HOME of Facebook, you'll be redirected... same here yesterday Thailand was Censoring FaceBook It seems that Thailand is censoring some parts of Facebook today, each time I try to go back to Facebook using the “Home” (http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home) link, from playing Farmville I get redirected to http://w3.mict.go.th/ and each time I receive: ————————————— This webpage is not available. The webpage at http://w3.mict.go.th/ might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address. —————————————- So either they have problems or they cannot handle the re-direct traffic. I spoke too soon above as I was in the middle of playing cafe world, using Firefox, when I got locked out but I have it partially open using IE. Can play but it does not download all the components.

August 12, 201015 yr I heard people complaining for 2 days I had no problems. Now this morning (in CM using CAT cable) I get the same message when I click home on FB. If I click my bookmark for sign in its fine, but I cannot click the home tab with any success.

August 12, 201015 yr Definitely being censored off and on somehow. Other friends from around Thailand are running into this problem when clicking within Facebook.
August 12, 201015 yr Author Seems to be OK so far this morning. I wonder if it was linked to the torrent problem.

August 13, 201015 yr No problems whatsoever accessing all areas of FB with 3BB. A government block would affect all ISP's, yes?
August 13, 201015 yr All back up and running. Yesterday was redirecting to the page I only see when I'm looking for other things.
August 13, 201015 yr guys, they definitely try to block it, but they made a mistake so it is not totally blocked. By the way, you should stop writing here about it as I'm totally sure this is where they come to watch how foreign people react and if they did well. I maybe was ok for the torrent blocking 2 days ago at the beginning, but I forgot about TV shows and soccer games we can't have in another way than p2p systems. And I hope it will not start to be big blackout on facebook, youtube, myspace etc... like in China, because it will a lot of disappointment.... Edited August 13, 201015 yr by vediovis
August 15, 201015 yr FB and many other websites are quasi-blocked by True. They re-direct to the True social network page. I have found that it happens mostly when I include links in my posting on a forum. If I remove the link it works fine. I can then edit the post and re-insert the links. Facebook is just a lost cause, usually works if I try a different browser though. Once it stayed blocked for a few days. I don't think this is censorship so much as them trying to steal social-networking type traffic. Edited August 15, 201015 yr by HC82
August 15, 201015 yr ... usually works if I try a different browser... Hmmm This tells me True are not the bad guys here...
