Twitter is blocked in Dubai

Twitter is blocked in Dubai

When I tried to access Twitter from my browser, I got this:

It looks like the problem of services/websites that are blocked in the UAE doesn’t involve VoIP only. Fortunately, I’m receiving updates through Thwirl, but it seems I’m not able to post anything.

  • It's really weird how those ISP's in UAE are acting. Ok, it's normal for a country living in the Middle Ages like Saudia to block as much web sites as they want, but come on, Dubai is a multi-nations business hub in the region, or at least this is what they want to be, so how do they still have such mentality of blocking sites and such crap!!
