    Boing Boing: Report: Indian gov blocks Blogspot, Typepad, Geocities blogs (UPDATED)

    This is a year old, but I hadn't heard about it. If it's true, it's ridiculous.

    Quoted: India's Department of Telecommunications (DoT) passed an order to ISPs Friday to block several websites. The list is confidential. Indian ISPs have been slowly coming into compliance. SpectraNet, MTNL, Reliance, and as of Monday afternoon, Airtel. State-backed BSNL and VSNL have not started yet but likely will soon. The known list of blocked domains is *.blogspot.com, *.typepad.com and geocities.com/*.
