Facebook still blocked in Moldova in the aftermath of anti-communist protests

Update: all web-sites that were blocked to my knowledge, including Facebok, were possible to access starting Monday, 13 April 09.

I was more than happy to wake up today and realize that the access to my blog was not blocked any more. Other web-sites that were blocked or flooded during the protests days like unimedia.info and blogosfera.md became also accessible.

Then checking few more sites, I realized being too quick to make judgments. I tried to log onto Facebook, and the browser page would always face me with the “server not found” text. Then I went to hidemyass.com, and voila! – I was on the Facebook. So, this site is still being blocked for Moldovan users (at least for those using my provider services).

Here I found another post in Romanian, confirming the claims I posted previously that Russian social networking site Odnoklassniki.ru has blocked the attempts of Moldovan users to inform and organize themselves before and during the protests.

So, if you want to get access to sites which are not possible to view from Moldova, use proxy servers, get informed, and continue to inform others.
