it must be the madness

Q. Which sites are blocked in India ?

Access to all blogs and websites hosted on the following servers is currently blocked in India.

? xxx.blogspot.com/
? xxx.typepad.com/
? xxx.blogs.com/
? www.geocities.com/xxx

For strange reasons, blogs hosted on Wordpress, Livejournal, MSN Spaces, Rediffblogs, IndiaTimes and Yahoo 360? are spared by the Indian censors and they are still accessible in India.

Q. Why is the Indian Government banning blog sites ?

While there is no official comment, most people are speculating that the ban is connected to the recent Mumbai Train Blasts. Probably the groups behind the bomb blasts used blogs to exchange information and co-ordinate the plan so the Government decided to ban these sites.

First, China, then Pakistan, now India? Are blogger’s rights even an issue to world governments?

This is outrageous. Where is the justice?

Anyway, very nice article from Digital Inspiration.
