What is Up with Blogspot (Blogger) Sites in India?


More details on my other blog.

Abi also called Spectranet ISP that seems to be blocking (users of MTNL, Exatt and a few others are facing problem, whereas I have no problem with Airtel at home but problems with Spectranet at office) the 'blogspot' domain and hears the same answer that I got.
"... I called up the Spectranet's Call Centre in Delhi, and their agent told me that the Ministry of Communications had indeed sent a letter asking them to block the blogspot.com sites. He was unaware of the reasons behind this move."

Gore on Indian TV Channels after Mumbai Blasts

I was quited disturbed at the images beamed on the Indian TV channels while covering the Mumbai Blasts.

I did a post about it at Globalvoices
A more detailed post at my Travel blog. I know a travel blog is a strange place to discuss it but I was not thinking clearly when I wrote it.
