staff-blorbo Obviously, you can not solve this problem, so we work with no help. We’ll cope :-)

Most ISP’s have the ability to block an individual blog – but if the court order is for IP numbers it is easier just to block the IP numbers and not argue –

there have been a few other cases where ISP’s blocked WordPress.COM and part of the resolution was customers demanding the problem –

the most recent case I remember was an ISP in Brazil blocked I think all of WordPress.COM – between the customers asking for resolution and WordPress.COM staffers working with the ISP things did come back – but it took a while and there were a lot of very upset bloggers in the forum

The second guilty page http://ettokulinar.wordpress.com/2005/08/31/после-теста-№2-и-первый-уже-не-так-страш/ is deleted from Internet. :-) Now bloggers can write to Rostelecom http://www.moscow.rt.ru/about/feedback/ and ask to exclude these two pages http://ettokulinar.wordpress.com/2005/08/31/после-теста-№2-и-первый-уже-не-так-страш/ and http://kinomozg.wordpress.com/2005/08/30/это-сильно/ from the register; and then to ISP to unblock IP 76.74.254.120.

Interesting, why my message has been removed from the thread? Because it listed sites on wordpress.com with terrorist content (according to russian court and internet service provider)?

I can understand that it was done in order not to promote it, but sites are still there. Does that mean that wordpress.com supports them?

Just want usual access to the hosting :)

Regarding the question of, “Does that mean that wordpress.com supports them?”

While WordPress.com does not condone the opinions expressed on the sites in question, we will not remove material on the grounds that it is offensive or disturbing to its readers. Please refer to our position on freedom of speech at the link below:

We hope that this issue is resolved now. Could those users who were affected please let us know if you’re still having trouble accessing WordPress.com? If so, please also let us know who your internet service provider is. Thank you!

I also hope the problem was solved.

Actually, I still have some difficulties, but I don’t think it’s the same issue (I don’t know what it is, yet, I believe it’s because of my computer) .

So, thanks again for your concern and for all your help!
