Finally, after years of "What the hell is this?!" KACST, the government body responsible for Internet in Saudi Arabia, decided to clean up the blogsphere and they started with those hosted on BlogSpot servers.
As you may expect, this blog is blocked. My other blogs Yawmyat and Pharmaddict are also blocked while my Amr Diab blog is still available. It seems that Amr Diab is not interesting enough; so I should do something about it! But believe it or not, Muttawa is not blocked yet!
I'm not sad that no one in The Magic Kingdom can read my blogs anymore, because this will never stop me. I will start another blog for Saudis and this blog will still alive. I'm just sad that I'm not gonna be able to read some of my very favourite blogs. I will miss reading Zaydoun's and Salam Pax.
Earlier this year, KACST blocked the whole BlogSopt domain but they unblocked it few weeks after that. I thought that was it. They made a mistake, they corrected it and they will never do it again. But I was so wrong!
My favourite blogger Zaydoun wrote a good advice on this whole censorship thing: IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, DON'T READ IT!!
No good, they blocked it already and they can't read it :(
