Guest Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 (1) Replies to listings in "Craigslist Bangkok" functions perfectly from BKK (2) Replies to "Craigslist Any Town USA" do not work! I run some heavy duty antivirus and VPN software on both my older Windows 7 machine, and my new Windows 10 laptop. Do other people get this error, or is it just me?

Kaoboi Bebobp Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 I get the same CL error response for Canadian Craigslist. I know from earlier experience Kijiji posts/replies are also blocked from foreign IPs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone explain a rational reason for this? And whose side is generating this block?? Like, you are going to go back to the USA, need to rent an apartment ... but are blocked? What?

I am able to log on and see listings, but not reply (pretty frustrating) Yes, CL uses cookies. I did clear all my cache, internet history, and cookies (which, as you know ... sucks .. because you have to re-log into everything) ... still no luck. I then disabled AVAST ... Nope. I think I need to locate any ad blockers and try again. We seem to be living in an era of a reduction of data liquidity for users, a polite way of saying "Thai Firewall?"

Possibly a bit of TMI (Too Much Information) 555 ... but you have actually answered the other question, which is, is the cross border issue in both directions?
