court cases

Well, last week I sat down to do a blog entry only to discover that blogger had a message "this site has been forbidden by the courts!" What???? My connection with friends and family has been blocked by the courts?? I checked on the local newspaper site and discovered that because of several people streaming football (soccer) coverage on their blogger accounts (coverage owned by the local television station), the courts decided to ban blogger all over the country. From the news article: "There are more than 600,000 Tk. bloggers actively using Blogger and some 18 million users from Tky. visited pages hosted by the site last month"  Wow! I am probably not the only one who is a little put out.  We are able to now post from a different server, but all videos are again blocked. So still photos only until further notice.
