pstttt....keep on & off


YouTube is one of the best free websiteS but some countries ban it, where and why? (again)
Here’s an overview of what’s actually happening

Iran and UAE - The UAE, as well as Iran, are blocking YouTube due to their standard censorship of “offensive material”.

Morocco - Morocco has had YouTube banned because of videos that mock the Moroccan king as well as some pro-Western Sahara clips - until today. For the first time in two weeks, Moroccans can access YouTube again.

Thailand - An off situation is found in Thailand, which blocks/bans/sues YouTube same reason with Morocco since April until now.

Turkey - Finally, a court in Istanbul has issued a short-lived order to block YouTube because of videos offending Ataturk, the founding father of the Turkish Republic.

Iraq - Iraq has quite a weird situation: in Internet cafes you can access YouTube, but the US military forces residing there, due to an order from Pentagon, can’t. The ban, which blocks access not only to YouTube but also several other social networking sites, like MySpace, is still enforced, despite severe protests from YouTube.

Brazil - Brazil, like Turkey, has had a nationwide YouTube ban due to a court order. The offending clip this time was Daniela Cicarelli’s sex stunt on the beach (how you can expect to have sex on the beach and not have it end up on YouTube is beyond us), and this Brazilian model insisted that the clip should either be fully removed (and users stopped from reposting it) or that YouTube should be banned altogether. YouTube was banned for a while, but the ban was removed relatively quickly.

Victoria, Australia (in schools) - Australia is also included here (actually, only one of its states, Victoria) because YouTube was banned in schools there. It’s not really a full ban, but it’s not negligible either, considering some 1600 schools were affected.

China and India - Finally, China and India currently have no active ban on YouTube, but both states have on occasions threatened to block the video sharing website; India because of a video clip mocking Gandhi, and China because of their general policy of banning, well, all kinds of stuff.

*Bear in mind that it’s hard to track actual availability of YouTube in some countries - not all ISPs comply with bans, and we count Youtube as “banned” where the largest ISP has initiated a block.

I dunno... personally I like the idea of YouTube being banned in schools. There should be, you know, education going on there... not surfing!
