YouTube ^[1] access within Thailand is still patchy, even after it was officially unblocked ^[2] last month.

Access to the site ^[1] was possible last week on the True ^[3] network, but since then all access times out.

Anyone else experiencing this? How is access on the other Thai networks?

Update
Well my suspicions are right, it seems that some networks are actually defying the lifting of the ban and banning the site themselves. I’m not sure of the legal aspect of this approach but it sums up that Thailand’s net access is still heavily restricted compared to the rest of the world.

So far the networks stopping you from accessing the site are:

- True
- TOT

Chris kindly sent this screenshot which shows how TOT are handling their own form of privacy

The text reads ” TOT is blocking access to this site that “offends the hearts” of the people of Thailand.”

The worry here is how ISP’s are acting on their own behalf when it comes to net content.
