It’s not “his blog” that’s blocked in Syria, but the domain “blogspot’ is, hence all of the blogs are hosted on this domain is blocked, that’s why we find most syrian bloggers living in syria blogging from wordpress instead.
So unfortunate! :(
Syrians (and I) should use a “mask” for their blogs.
Thanks Google charges just $10 for a domain name.
