  I know today is not a workday but I want to bring to your attention the blocking of WordPress blogs in Uganda especially those that cover current events, one can only access them through the WordPress app and not through the browser unless a VPN is used just like in the case of Facebook

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi and thanks for letting us know. I see that someone has also flagged your thread for Staff attention. Thanks for your patience.

  Meanwhile, here is a guide to bypassing Internet Restrictions https://wordpress.com/support/bypassing-internet-restrictions/

  STAFF: while a valid sentiment, perhaps BS in that guide could be expressed differently? 👀

  @musanjufubenjaminkavubu1, thanks for reporting this. I’ve passed this on so we can investigate further. For now, following the steps from the link that @justjennifer shared is the best way to proceed.

  
  @justjennifer, we’ll have a look at the working there :)
