youtube blocked?

justice4pal

Someone at school said apparently it's being blocked - most likely cause it's a bandwidth hog.  I just tried, and got nuttin' but "Internet Explorer cannot display page"

Any insight out there?

glad you have it in Saudi, I guess.

However, since this is a Libya expat forum, my question was regarding youtube access here in Libya. 

Anyone have news or insight from other users in the Jamahiriya as to youtube access?

It's google's web browser, similar to Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, etc.

I would suggest you download and use Firefox from here - It is faster than IE and much more reliable. As for the access to Youtube is this from work or from your home ?. If it is from work then I would suggest your IT department have blocked it, as streaming video eats up bandwidth like nothing on earth.

Just tried it with Mozilla and Chrome the only way arround it is vtunnel.com or something along the lines of it. I believe it has been blocked. I use wimax, and no luck.

I know at the office we have a connection via dish through italy and I dont have any problem with this system.

Funny you only hear about China on the news.

The IT guy at my office told me that LTT blocks U Tube purely because is sucks up so much bandwidth. There are plenty of political content or sex sites which are still accessible (apparently ;) ), suggesting that bandwidth and not content is their issue.

It is blocked on political grounds. and the LTT general manager was fired from his position because he couldn't block youtube permanently.
