Links are not redirecting
-
Hi
The links in my posts are playing up. Has WordPress done this? There is a political storm going on in Australia at the moment in raltion to some of the content which other media have been reporting on.
The post is at: http://kangaroocourtofaustralia.com/2011/09/05/has-julia-gillard-blackmailed-the-media-to-cover-up-her-corrupt-past-the-fairfax-media-and-news-corp-scandal/and the 2 main links that seem to have problems are (Click here to read the Bob Kernohan affidavit) and (“PM A Lost Cause For Warring Unions“).

Bob Kernohan affidavit – link loaded to http://justgroundsonline.com/forum/topics/they-cant-shut-us-up-its-out-there-now-exclusive-robert-kernohan?xg_source=activity&id=3535428%3ATopic%3A281510&page=2 – for me
WordPress.COM believes in freedom of speech and only censures sites based on abusive or threatening behavior (a few more) but political speech is generally left alone.
-
PS – the biggest problem I have seen with “censored links” outside of links being broken for Terms of Service violations (links to affiliate catalogs for instance) are when people messed up the formatting of the links.
There have been a few cases of problems with ISP’s or some countries taking down all access to WordPress.COM but Australia is not a country I have seen any problems in the forum with.

Still not working. When I click on the links it comes up with a yellow blob with red around it and it has a red ! on it. Like I said very political at the moment. If it is not wordpress.com could it be the internet service provider doing it?

They all seem to be working fine for me as well.
Please try clearing your browser’s cookies and cache: http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=32050
If that doesn’t work, I’d suspect your ISP or maybe something else installed on your computer.

I’m using Firefox 6.0.1 and all the links redirected properly for me.
