Mindless Internet Censorship by the Government

[manas]

I am unable to access any blogspot.com blog since yesterday and now I am getting slight hints that it is being blocked in India by some ISP's?

Can you access blogspot.com blogs?
If yes then what is your ISP,if no then also what is your ISP?

[Chirag]

Yup I can access blogspot blogs. I use Sancharnet(BSNL) Dial up.

[blueshift]

[manas]

Yes manas I am also not able to open your blog. You know I also use Ortel Broadband here, may be our ISP blocking it.

[GNUrag]

I've been reading on linux-india irc channels about the recent unaccessibility of Blogspot.com, Typepad.com blogs. It seems that the ministry of IT has ordered such blockage. Several people have reported about the government agency CERT-IN < http://www.cert-in.org.in > behind this blocking, and has issued notices to several indian isps.

India blocks Blogger, TypeAd and Geocities blogs and websites

The Indian Government has issued an order to all Indian ISPs for a ban on various blogging sites. While no official release has been made on this front, the reasons being attributed to this ban range from it being a preventive measure to stop sleeper terrorist cells from accessing instructions contained in blogs, to a new measure to try and control the spread of information through blogs. The order was issued by Department of Telecommunications (DoT). The known list of blocked domains is *.blogspot.com, *.typepad.com and geocities.com/*.

It leads me to wonder if this is a case of ISPs overreacting, which would not be the first. Three years ago, they had rather zealously blocked groups.yahoo.com in a similar manner when all they wanted to actually do was to block a particular group. As of now most of the large ISPs have already complied with the DoT order and a large population of Indian bloggers has been cut off from their own blogs. Keep checking back here, as we will post more news on this story whnever available.

Here is a list of Indian ISPs (http://scratchpad.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_ISPs_that_seem_to_have_blocked_blogger) who have already complied with this order.

[gary4gar]

strange bsnl is not there in the list however the blogger does not open in it

[eagle_y2j]

BSNL also started to ban *.blogspot.com!.Tis Govt sucks our right of information....................................... ..........

[kalpik]

Ok.. Even Airtel blocking blogspot now!

[GNUrag]

This news has been published in all major newspapers today. Seems like the media has taken this issue very seriously.

Maybe sometime today i might be able to get my hands on the list of sites that CERT-IN < http://www.cert-in.org.in > has ordered the ministry of IT to block, from a contact who has highly placed contact in a major ISP. I've been told that the list of websites blocked runs into 28 pages..

From the initial guesses it seems that they have setup rules on ISPs routers which block any IP addresses that belong to Blogger, Typepad, Geocities etc..

[Vishal Gupta]

May be in future they BAN forums. :mad:

[aadipa]

It is funny to read what some officials said to Hindustan Times (http://www.hindustantimes.com/news/181_1746690,000600010001.htm)
Officials defended the decision saying, “We would like those people to come forward who access these (the 12) radical websites and please explain to us what are they missing from their lives in the absence of these sites.”

Are Internet Service Providers blocking blogs?
Shivam Vij
July 17, 2006 19:25 IST

Bloggers in India are getting together to protest against the sudden blocking of popular Google-owned blog-hosting site Blogger by some Internet Service Providers (ISPs) like Spectranet, Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Limited (MTNL), Reliance Powersurfer, Airtel Broadband and Sify.

On July 15, Mridula Dwivedi, a teacher of management studies in Gurgaon first discovered that visiting any blogspot blog -- such as, say Mumbai Help -- returned the message, 'Site Blocked!' Her ISP, Spectranet, confirmed they had blocked some sites based on government directives.

J Grewal, Spectranet's Delhi representative at the National Internet exchange of India, told this reporter that, on July 15, the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) had sent ISPs a list of sites to be blocked. R H Sharma, senior engineer with MTNL, said the list ran into some 22 pages.

Now, several bloggers have organised themselves into a Bloggers' Collective and are planning to file a Right To Information application to obtain the list.

Anil Saxena of Spectranet confirmed that the list sent by the DoT contained names of particular blogs, but added that Blogspot as a whole had not been blocked. This is contrary to the experience of customers like Dwivedi, who are still unable to view sites hosted on Blogspot, in addition to those on Typepad and Yahoo!'s Geocities. "The list is confidential and I can't make it public," said Saxena.

Under the Information Technology Act, 2000, a body called the Computer Emergency Response Team, or CERT-IN, was created along the lines of similar authorities the world over. Although its main task is in the domain of Internet security, it also oversees Internet censorship under a clause that seeks to ensure 'balanced flow of information.' Any government department seeking a block on any web site has to approach CERT-IN, which then instructs the DoT to block the site after confirming the authenticity of the complaint.

Web sites can be blocked if they contain pornography, speeches of hate, contempt, slander or defamation, or if they promote gambling, racism, violence or terrorism.

"Such sites may be blocked within the provisions of the Fundamental Right to free speech and expression, granted in India's Constitution," said cyber-law expert Praveen Dalal, adding, "If, however, the blocking is arbitrary, unreasonable and unfair, it would be in violation of Articles 14, 19 and 21 of the Constitution of India."

The trouble is bloggers don't even know which sites the DoT wants blocked. To make matters worse, ISPs seem to be blocking entire domains on which these blogs are hosted.

In 2003, one of the first things CERT-IN did was to approve the blocking of an obscure mailing list run by a banned militant outfit, the Hynniewtrep National Liberation Council (HNLC) of the Khasi tribe in Meghalaya. Ironically, the popularity and visibility of the list went up by leaps and bounds, despite it being blocked by all ISPs. Many could still see the list via email or proxy surfing.

This time, something similar seems to have happened, to not one but three domains. However, CERT-IN's Director, Dr Gulshan Rai, said he was unaware of the problem and would not be able to respond "off-hand". In a telephone interview, he told this reporter, "Somebody must have blocked some sites. What is your problem?"

Bloggers certainly think of it as a problem though, and are all set to react.

Till now I have accepted a lot of wrongs done by the government, the corruption, inefficiency of government agencies and the general state of affairs in this country. I put up with it till now thinking that it hardly affects me and that its not big deal (plus the general tolerant attitude of "chalta hai" us Indians have).

I always thought Internet will be always safe from the government because of their ignorance of it. Internet was the one place left in this country free from government mishandling. Turns out I was wrong. This is going too far.

I am a webmaster and Internet is where I earn my living, get news and information, find entertainment, and even do shopping. I don't want mindless stupid government censorship to destroy the Internet for Indians. This isn't China. Such actions by the government cannot be tolerated. Remember, if you don't do anything now they WILL get bolder and start assuming more control. They can not and should not attempt this as:

1) They do not understand what Internet is and how it works, and will end up messing it up (this incident is an example).
2) Internet should be free of ALL censorship. That's how the Internet works.
3) Internet is bringing in huge amount of revenue (foreign exchange) for Indians and its the best and biggest source of information. More and more people like myself are able to work from home and able to employ themselves and even others. We don't need government interference in it, we are doing well without it.

*What I propose is a Lawsuit against Govt. of India and/or CERT-IN*
First I suggest a RTI application be filed. This will surely help us with the case. Are there any lawyers on here who would like to help? I am ready contribute my time and even some money towards this cause. Those who are interested please post in this thread.

Don't let the government get away with anything. If we don't take an action against this who will? I, for one, cannot continue being a sheep.

cant open any blogs but the blogger.com page can be accessed
MTNLTriband,Mumbai here

[champ_rock]

i also casnt open my blog... its www.jakshay.blogspot.com
i am on sify
does anyone know why is this happening?

[GNUrag]

techno, because blogger.com's ip is 66.102.15.100
and individual blog pages on blogger have an ip 66.102.15.101

they must have enabled IP level blocking.

btw, Coral Cache technique works

http://gnurag.blogspot.com.nyud.net:8080

just add a .nyud.net:8080 to any blocked site you want to access.

[aadipa]

blogspot and geocities (never tried typepad) are not openeing directly. anyway we can use proxies to open these like:

http://www.thewebtunnel.com/

This is not about how we can access these sites, there are n-number of ways to bypass such blocks, but the important question is why these sites are blocked.

[GNUrag]

The internet is extremely powerful. It will always route around these kinds of blocks. But i really wonder how clueless these government officials can be. I bet they might have thought blogger.com was just another smalltime site, and that this block will get un-noticed.

[Raaabo]

Personally I hate blogs, tried it once, it felt like a diary, and I felt like Betty from Archie comics:

"Dear Diary,

My life sucks; the world has gone crazy; wars everywhere; bomb blasts; floods; bird fl; etc. ad infinitum, ad nauseum -- yet I somehow feel that people will be interested in reading about my little life and perhaps think that I write well because I use Microsoft Word's thesaurus better than most other people... I want to show off to my friends, I hope they like how I write... Perhaps I can take a news article and add my own 2 cents worth and people will link to me and raise my google rankings...

Oh dear diary, woe is me!!!"

Oh well, no big loss... though blocking sites is stupid, teach the cops computers and how to form a search query in google rather than exhibit paranoia and block everything.

I'll only miss a few technology blogs though, everything else is expendible! :)

I understand you are joking. But I hope you understand this isn't about just blocking some blogs. Nobody should be able to tell us what we can or cannot read. Just read my post earlier in this thread.

And for the record: I am not even a blogger and I hardly read any blogs, but I do feel concerned.

[~Phenom~]

my blog is not mine now.

[Vyasram]

i wanna sue the govt or whatever the sh** responsible for bringing down ad revenues on my blog. Is it possible

Btw, are those guyz gonna ban emails,forums and sms' as one can send porn/terrorist activities/hatred over them

I always liked being an Indian, But slowly i'm losing my love for this country bcoz of the govt. Our govt , which consists mainly of 70 yr olds , do what the 70 year olds want and not what the majority of the population wants.

all popular bloging sites including blogger is banned by our Central Govt

Blogger, Geocities, Typepad is banned by RTI of India due to Mumbai Attack

Everyone get shock to hear about IP blocking news. In another forum blogger community I got a letter which every blog holder have send it to RTI. Now its time to show our uniqeness againest RTI, India.
The letter is shown given below :

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

To
Shri B.B. Bahi,
Joint Director and PIO(RTI)
Office of PIO (RTI)
Room No 1016, Electronics Niketan
Department od INfomation Technology (DIT)
Ministry of Communication and Information Technology

Sub: Information regarding the blocking of internet website domains

Dear Sir,

It has come to my attention that I , along with several other internet users accross the country, have been unable to access the following websites:

Http://www.blogspot.com
http://www.geocities.com
http://www.typepad.com

As well as the following sub domains:

http://sub-domain.blogspot.com
http://sub-domain.blogspot.com

On asking the relevant ISPs, their users were told these websites have been blocked under a directive of the Ministry of communication and Information Technology, Government of India.

I would like to use the right to infomation act to ascertain the following:

1. Has there been any such directive issued by the Ministry of Communications & Information Technology?
2. If so, why has this ban coma into force?
3. Why have these particular domain names been specifically banned?
4. When will this ban cease to exist?
5. If no such directive has been issued, why are these websites being blocked?
6. Who is responsible for ensuring that Indian citizens have the fredom to access these websites?
7. What form of redressal does an Indian citizen have to ensure that these websites are no longer blocked?


I must emphize here that these websites, are used by thousands of ordinary Indian Citizens to express their niews, thoughts and ideas. Indian citizens have the right to express their views freely, and have an unhinded exchange oh thoughts and ideas.

Blocking these websites universally and not allowing Indian citizens to read any of them is tantamount to hidering the freedom of expression of those thousands of ordinary Indian citizens.

I request you to kindly look into this matter. Thank you in advance for your co-operation.
Yours Sincerely,



<Your name>

Indian Government doesn't represent the citizens of this country any more.
They're slowly turning this country into a dystopian society. And this cannot

The clowns must be dragged down from their thrones and punished in the
most severe manner possible. None of the political parties of India are concerned
about well-being of the citizens.

here is what i got from rediff
Blog blockade will be lifted in 48 hours
The blocking of blogs hosted by sites such as Blogspot, Typepad and Yahoo! Geocities by Internet Service Providers is likely to be lifted within 48 hours.

At least that is what Amitabh Singhal, a spokesperson of the Internet Service Providers Association of India (ISPAI) told this correspondent on Wednesday.

Singhal said representatives of various ISPs met on Wednesday to discuss the issue after the media took it up earlier this week. He acknowledged that some ISPs -- he insisted it wasn't all -- mistook the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) notice and blocked entire blog domains, adding that it was technically feasible to block a sub-domain and leave others still accessible.

Are Internet Service Providers blocking blogs?

If, for instance, DoT wanted a certain blog -- say shivam.blogspot.com --blocked, it was feasible to just block that URL, without restricting access to other blogs with the blogspot.com extension.

"An advisory is being sent from ISPAI to member ISPs saying they should configure their Domain Name Servers (DNS) in such a way that they block only the sub-domains DoT wants blocked," said Singhal, adding, "It would help if, in future, DoT could also mention the mechanism by which sites should be blocked."

The advisory is a result of a meeting held on Wednesday between executive members of ISPAI, representatives of DoT and the Department of Information Technology. "We expect the problem to be resolved within 48 hours," said Singhal.

As news of the blockade spread to the national and international media, Indian bloggers -- organised under the Bloggers Against Censorship banner -- continued to devise a strategy to counter it. Some have filed Right to Information applications, while others are considering a Public Interest Litigation. They say they are against any kind of censorship, even that of non-blog Web sites such as HinduUnity.org

Interestingly, the Indian consulate in New York has also sought to explain the ban. According to e-mail sent by A R Ghanashyam, deputy consul general, to a representative of the South Asian Journalists Association, a write up containing derogatory references to Islam and had the potential to inflame religious sensitivities, had appeared on a blog.

DoT took up the matter but, because of a technological error, ISPs went beyond what was expected of them, resulting in 'the unfortunate blocking of all blogs.'

HinduUnity.org and HinduHumanRights.org are among 17 sites sought to be blocked, on the grounds that they are spreading Hindu nationalist propaganda. Accessed through an anonymizer, HinduUnity.org was found to have articles against Congress party President Sonia Gandhi and Indian Muslims. It also had a 'hit list' of people it considered anti-Hindu.

Another site on the list is Rahulyadav.com, set up by a US-based person who calls himself a member of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad. Dalitstan.org, on the other hand, calls itself a 'human rights organisation working for the upliftment of Dalits.'

None of the sites seem to possess any direct security threat to India, or have any connection with the recent Mumbai blasts. Even more bizarre are the blogs sought to be blocked. 'Princess Kimberley' is a defunct blog with just two postings in 2004 about an American teenager's depressing life. 'Commonfolk Commonsense' is a Chinese language blog, while 'Exposing the Left' is written by someone in Southern Illinois!

DoT has not explained why these sites need to be restricted from viewing by Indians. Amitabh Singhal said the ISPs were not in favour of Internet censorship, but were bound by terms and conditions of the license granted to them by the government.

its strange how come google or blogger itself is numb about this

[~Phenom~]

Dataone has now lifted the ban. Anyway, the government didnt ask the ISPs to block the entire domain. They had provided them a list of specific sites they want blocked.
However, I think thats fruiteless too, as its extremely easy to acces those sites using proxies.
I still cant access my blog http://rahulsparadise.blogspot.com/ , I am using Dataone.
