TVU and others were blocked last April to prevent the red shirts from accessing the now defunct PTV streams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB1950 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 (edited) <deleted> Well if you think it's '<deleted>' check out this TV thread: http://www.thaivisa....ftpedia__st__25 In post #29: Softpedia was blocked (during the Red Shirt protests) to prevent Thais from downloading streaming programs like TVU and Sopcast. The Government didn't want people watching the now defunct People Channel broadcasts. The same also goes for justin.tv and ustream, which are blocked as well. Pretty ridiculous if you asked me, but this is Thailand. Personally, I think Supernova's comment makes a lot more sense, as many of the download sites for legitimate software (such as Softpedia) were blocked as well. Of course it's 'up to you' as to what you think. Edited November 18, 2010 by BB1950 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phazey Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 It's banned because of the state of emergency Bangkok is under. The ban will be lifted what that ceases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
