32 Web Sites Blocked in INDIA, Including GitHub, Archive.Org, Pastebin, DailyMotion And Vimeo

[mazigh]

India’s DoT or Department of Telecom has randomly ordered internet service providers across the country to block a long list of websites. The names include the likes of Pastebin, Archive.org, GitHub, Vimeo, Dailymotion, and many others.

Many of the names in the list are sites meant for pasting and sharing text files. Why exactly these sites are being blocked is not yet know. Depending upon your area and ISP, some sites may or may not be blocked but the DoT order is in effect regardless.

It’s an unruly form of censorship, and not the first of its kind in India. Most of the times it rises out of something that seemingly offends someone being posted on one of these sites by someone, causing this sort of ignorant knee-jerk reaction blocking the entire site by the DoT and the people in charge who generally don’t have any idea of how the internet works.

Hopefully, this is temporary and access to the sites is restored soon.

32 Websites Reportedly Blocked In India To Prevent ISIS From Spreading Anti-India Content

​

India Has Blocked Some Of The World's Most Popular Websites Because Of A Threat From ISIS

​http://uk.businessinsider.com/india-blocks-websites-because-of-threat-from-isis-2014-12

​

​Also it says in the Business Insider post that

It doesn't look like the block has extended to all of India, though. The Times of India is reporting that only certain internet service providers are blocking the list of sites.

​So it seems not everyone is blocked .

[Luaine]

pastebin, dailymotion, vimeo, tny.cz, github are working fine here

[sujith]

Why github? :wtf:

Man this sucks!

[Luaine]

m missing dailymotion :( :angry:

[kaloo1995]

[VileTouch]

whoa, github? they just removed themselves from the software developement business almost entirely!

let's hope this was just a mistake or it will cost them billions!

:showoff: Indian Government Orders 32 Web Sites Blocked, Including GitHub, Archive.Org, Pastebin, DailyMotion And Vimeo :angry: :wtf:

Internet users in India are starting to lose to access websites including GitHub, Internet Archive, Pastebin, and Vimeo under an order from India's DoT (Department of Telecom).

Centre for Internet and Society (Bangalore, India) Policy Director Pranesh Prakash posted a copy of the notice listing the 32 blocked URLs in Twitter

The URLs listed include:

• justpaste,it,
• hastebin.com,
• codepad.org,
• pastie.org,
• pastee.org,
• paste2.org,
• slexy.org,
• paste4btc.com,
• 0bin.net,
• heypasteit.com,
• sourceforge.net/projects/phorkie,
• atnsoft.com/textpaster,
• archive.org,
• hpage.com,
• ipage.com,
• webs.com,
• weebly.com,
• 000webhost.com,
• freehosting.com,
• vimeo.com,
• dailymotion.com,
• pastebin.com,
• gist.github.com,
• ipaste.eu,
• thesnippetapp.com,
• snipt.net,
• tny.cz (Tinypaste),
• github.com (gist-it),
• snipplr.com,
• termbin.com,
• snippetsource.net,
• cryptbin.com.

Problems accessing GitHub are going to be especially painful for India's enormous developer workforce, and will definitely impact both India's domestic and outsourced software development business sector.

A matter of Indian National Security?

One Indian official said ISIS propaganda is the cause for blocking the nearly three dozen websites.
