IDN blocked?

[atoms2me]

Traffic to my Chinese IDN.coms dropped quite a bit recently, I can't think of any reason they should be singled out for blacklisting -- anybody has any ideas?

Use this site to see if the GFW has your domain blocked:

Nice link. thanks!

[atoms2me]

Thanks.
Yeap, all blocked. "Status: couldn't connect to host"
Something fishy coming from the other side of the wall.

I guess Name Drive had offended them and all their IPs got blocked.
I saw some pro-Tibet political ads a few days back.

The pages of Namedrive and many other parking companies are blocked in China for most of the time. Sometimes there is a small period they're available but unfortunately not that often.

Yeah, seems like most pages i try that have been blocked for months are now reachable (bbc, reuters, wikipedia etc)
Parked domains are still blocked though (sedo, nd, etc)

[touchring]

SC is not blocked but traffic is below last year when i last parked there. I suspect that the reason is because SE traffic got cut off after baidu drop parking sites.

I have a domain parked at Sedo which passes the test:

自杀.net (xn--tqv960d.net)


This is the only one I tried so far.

Nope, not loading for me.

As touchring said it may be accessible elsewhere..

[touchring]

there is no single firewall, there might be one for every ISP.

Darn!

i've moved all my names back to SC, i think it is too dangerous to parked with ND, they might ban your name permanently from China, especially if you displayed adult or gambling ads.

I tried one, it's not loading but i think it's not totally blocked, otherwise there will be a forbidden message, like for ND pages.

By the way, i saw names that were sold for good name that were blocked. Suggest you check your own names.

[mgrohan]

Are silverclicks.com.cn and dopa.com the same company?
