FIRST YOUTUBE, NOW BLOGSPOT ?

If you're reading this post then the chances are you're not in Thailand.
I've heard that the 'blogspot' domain is the latest to come under the spotlight from Thailand's Ministry of Communications and Technology. Apparently they have taken objection to comments made on several 'blogspot' blogs, and rather than blocking those they've decided to ban access to all blogspot domains within Thailand.
If you're in Thailand and reading this, or even if you're outside, then leave a message and let me know you're there.
EDIT: As of 7.40pm I am able to access The Bangkok Bugle from my condo. That's a first for the best part of two days and I wonder whether it will be a similar story from work tomorrow ?

I've had no problems reading blogspot sites at home and at work.

Hi,

I am in Thailand but use a proxy server to access your blog.
It seems TRUE customers are not affected by the ban, only TOT.
