RedNIvar Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Has the Ministry of Information and Communication blocked all access to Facebook? It was working fine until about 10:30pm. However now all I get is this announcement that the page I am trying to visit has been blocked. What's up with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Bob Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 (edited) I saw the Facebook block as of about 930pm this evening. Probably to keep red shirts from using it to coordinate for tomorrow's protest in Chiang Mai (I just came from Sanam Kila where a stage and sound system is being erected). With Abhisit's US visit coming up the government might also be worried about... Edited September 18, 2010 by Captain_Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomTumTiger Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 On True, it was blocked, but the address i had saved was something like facebook.com/home.php, or some such. When i typed in facebook.com it worked just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedNIvar Posted September 18, 2010 Author Share Posted September 18, 2010 I can access FB through my iphone. I think it is logging in through FB mobile. Thanks for the Facebook.com tip, it worked for me as well. I did find however that I can not go back to my Wall or Updates from Mafia Wars by pressing Home, it gives me the same message. Not sure if this is the same with all Games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rheinwiese Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 On True, it was blocked, but the address i had saved was something like facebook.com/home.php, or some such. When i typed in facebook.com it worked just fine. Same here. BKK 5am via True. After login the MICT site popped up. I clicked the browsers "go back" button and Facebook loaded normally.

RedNIvar Posted September 19, 2010 Author Share Posted September 19, 2010 It still pops up, but easy to get around. It does not look like it is completely blocking me out, but just being a nuisance. I'm on True, and it looks like this might be a True only issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangkokcitylimits Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 (edited) Facebook opens normally here, as always. When it's locally blocked (do they??) in your area or via your provider, still nothing lost, there are enough sites to bypas.in every block. I never had any sites blocked here the past years, because I just don't allow anyone to block my free internet.

NHJ Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 facebook is still blocked on my 3bb in samui but i didn't even noticed it cause i'm always using https:// version of the site. so instead of http://www.facebook.com/login.php use https://www.facebook.com/login.php everything will be fine. if you don't wanna be annoyed and if you're using firefox you can add this extenstion : "https-everywhere" . have fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbk Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Sorry, didn't see this one otherwise would have posted here It seems ongoing and now, from other reports, not just 3BB. Using www.facebook.com works for me as well. Just have to login, see you are blocked and then go to facebook.com instead of facebook.com/index.php which is blocked. 3BB tried to tell me it was just me that was blocked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotsman Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 If you use Firefox and its blocked just use the back browser button and it opens into your account. Regards Scotsman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konini Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 If you use Firefox and its blocked just use the back browser button and it opens into your account. Regards Scotsman I was going to use facebook's mobile site (have to use that one when in Vietnam) but instinctively hit the back button and it worked fine. This block message only started for me yesterday afternoon in Chiang Mai - very odd how it's affecting different parts of the country at different times. Even stranger, I have 2 accounts, both were affected. My husband didn't get the blocked message on his account last night (I did every time I logged on), but it was there for him this morning. I've just logged on to all 3 accounts about a minute ago and didn't get the block on any of them. Very strange - hope it's not a sign of things to come and they're testing out blocking social networking........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genobkk Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I been getting the message all day today. if you are allready logged in it seems to work ok, but if you have logged out and then try to log in agian you will get the blocked message. Then you have to go to facebook.com and everything is fine. I am using 3BB in Bangkok. I just find it strange you have the reds and yellow groups fighting, but seems the Thais are totaly blind to cenership ship and do not speak up or compalin about it. If they are trying to block facebook it is a very poor block, it could just the well trained people at the MICT. I posted some things on facebook about the CAT being evil well the MICT is the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
