chingmai331 Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Two days now, maybe for a longer time, the Trib has been blocked by Ministry of Digital Economy and Society. Anyone have any ideas why this is so? I'm in Chiang Mai, a backwater village in T'land so cannot keep up to date with govt regs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabhand Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 No blocking for me. In Pattaya using 3BB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Just opened their home page without a problem ( http://www.chicagotribune.com/ ). Were you trying to open a link to a article. Sometimes they only block a page that has something they consider offensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chingmai331 Posted May 12, 2018 Author Share Posted May 12, 2018 Revival of old/current news blockage on Chicago Tribune. Now for sure the entire paper is blocked, all refs leading to web site stopped so obviously the Thai powers are upset but does anyone know the root cause of the situation?

Anyone have any ideas why this is so? Did it work before for you? Now it does not? The main site, or just a specific link? Are you redirected to a Thai government website/notification? Are other sites similarly blocked for you? Which ISP? Does this happen with all of your devices? Maybe clear browser cache, check for malware - there's a ton here recently, restart the modem, all devices. I seem to be able to access the main site, and all stories related to Thailand therein, even potentially negative ones. I'm on AIS Fiber, True Fiber, DTAC 4G, in Bangkok, all work fine. The Daily Mail is blocked for me, for example, by my ISPs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chingmai331 Posted May 13, 2018 Author Share Posted May 13, 2018 Seems my ISP is CAT telecom public ltd, and i am in Chiang Mai. Now, since i have read all the above conflicting news, i can find some Tribune news when i use the Google Incognito. But the main TRIB site will not open, only specific pages. Yeah, blocked by the Govt Digital Media gang, ya' know the guys who work at http://103.77.116.101/?v0.42p3 Frankly, i had no idea some providers, like BBB could open pages, where my CAT could not.

They need help from the Chinese on every field. No "single internet gateway" yet. Chicago Tribune (http://www.chicagotribune.com/) also no problem for me (ToT fibre).

chingmai331 Posted August 20, 2018 Author Share Posted August 20, 2018 Must be something to do with 'he who must remain unmentioned'. Either that or Bangkok hates the CUBS/BEARS/WHITESOX/BULLS/BLACKHAWKS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunBENQ Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I searched the site for "Thailand" and at least one article from 2016 is of a nature that would not be allowed in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
