Thailand Government bans Mashable.com for posting YouTube videos mocking the Thai King.
Mashable.com posted about YouTube being banned in Thailand, showing what videos was banned, and you can see one such clip here. Today Mashable.com found out their site is banned in Thailand, the reason given was Mashable.com reported on the YouTube banning, criticizing Thailand in its commentaries and posting of the banned YouTube clips.
When the user in Thailand visits Mashable.com, their homepage is redirected to the Ministry of Information and Communication Technology, with one of their pages displaying a green error page.
Welcome page for Mashable.com in Thailand
Error message
So if anyone criticizes the Thai king is a crime punishable by up to 15 years in Jail, if you live in Thailand, if not, your site will be banned in Thailand.
If you still want to access, Mashable.com in Thailand or any banned site you can use a Google Proxy method to see those sites.
It is absurd Thailand will ban whoever criticizes them, all they want the websites to have lavish praises for them.
Do you agree with such banning tendencies of Thai Government?
