Did they block YouTube again?


gtmash Because I can't access it since yesterday.
jabbajabba I can access it, but the network seems really slow over the past two days. gtmash
Do you live in one of those unblocked areas? Etisalat is always slow. Stylinexpat That's Messed up! Youtube blocked now in Dubai?? :roll: ^ian^
Does it come up with the 'site blocked' warning? Otherwise it's just network problems. HP Is it same as Metro ? Tube is a lot success in UK ! When have they strated it in Dubai? :roll: Popeye I've just tried and got straight in!! :? gtmash
No, I get a " Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" or some such error. Last year, Etisalat quietly blocked Metacafe and made it appear like the "Network Error" problem was on Metacafe's side, so that Etisalat did not have to take the backlash for blocking it. Went on for several months. I'm wondering if they are doing the same thing again, since my internet works perfectly fine for everything else. I am guessing a lot of you guys are in TECOM-serviced areas.
Edit: On that note, I can't access Metacafe either. bonk Youtube ok for me but internet was painfully slow today, ok now. Tropic23 I can watch the videos just few sec or min and then it stops. That is since few days.

Agreed, my system is running at about 1/4 speed these days bills will be full speed though :cry: gtmash
True. Cable internet is amazingly slow nowadays. Did some ship cut an underwater cable in LaLaLand waters again? sage & onion
Methinks you hit it on the head GT EyeCandyDiva The have blocked nearly every fav video of mine. How do they judge on the valediction of each video blocked? Nudity? Sex? There are worse videos and still unblocked. I wish I could know how Etisalat people think. bonk
The only ones I've seen blocked are of a certain, ah, genre ---- I think I would like to meet you :wink:

You bet :mrgreen:
