YouTube Banned In Thailand
It seems that YouTube was banned in Thailand after some videos against the king were posted on the site. According to Patrick Frater, "Files included a slide show with graffiti across the king's face and a pair of feet above his head. Feet are considered dirty in Thailand and such depiction is highly offensive." This one slideshow caused YouTube to be banned completely in Thailand.
Although YouTube declined the Thai government's request to remove the video, YouTube employees are working with the government to educate them on how YouTube works, and how they can block specific videos instead of the entire site.
However, Thailand is not the only country to ban YouTube. Back in March, YouTube was banned in Turkey after a video insulting the founder of modern Turkey was posted. Also, last year YouTube was banned in the public schools of Australia by the state government in their attempt to fight online bullying.
