hey guys, can you access Google/Yahoo in your place.

from 8:00am (IST), i'm not able to access foreign websites (Except this forum) from here in India. (many of my friends are experiencing the same prob.)

i dunno what's the problem.

i wanna confirm whether there's some Website Filtering goin on here.

If your using school computers, there is a possibility that your Computer Wiz that controls the Web Filtering of what u can access or not has blocked those sites that you can't enter

No problems at my place. Probably depends on what area you are in and your ISP.

Public web restrictions are just wrong.

Depends on your point of view, don't you think? Apparently, shock, horror, there are people around who don't want the whole planet to be like America.

I don't think anyone wants to be like America.
