11:41AM, Update: Facebook works on Mobile by dialing http://m.facebook.com but guess what? Only using GPRS connection and on a Mobile browser!
I was told it was gonna’ happen, and it did. This is the end of Internet social interaction in U.A.E. That’s it. And for those of us who capitalized on Facebook for Ad Spaces, and for many of us who are running campaigns over Facebook, a huge media selection gap and emptiness.
One word, outrageous! A lot, I’ve said plenty of words on Censorship and the sites that were blocked, now, I can only feel bad, quietness is the real deal in this case, but most of us won’t, and a flood of press articles will be read, and it will reach the media faster than ever, this is a website you don’t mess with, it’s a base for social interactivity, a lot will happen, and I’m so sure it’ll be back so soon!
Instead, only the inappropriate(in the eye of Etisalat) pages will be filtered and banned/blocked, just like YouTube, my word! It’ll be back!
