Just got some interesting correspondence from someone in the United Arab Emirates.

It appears the government is blocking access to my Private Idaho distribution Web page. Apparently the UAE only allows ISP customers to access the Net through a proxy server, similar to Singapore. They're blocking out the typical nasty porn sites, Cindy Crawford fan clubs, etc.

Well, obviously someone over there finds Private Idaho subversive enough to block.

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

I'd appreciate any other accounts of countries that are blocking http://www.eskimo.com/~joelm/pi.html or http://www.eskimo.com/~joelm. Wonder if the UK will be next?

Joel
