Submission + - YouTube blocked in Brazil
keeboo writes: The popular video sharing site, YouTube is now blocked in Brazil, due to a Brazilian court decision last Thursday.
The site was ordered to block the uploaded sex videos of Daniela Cicarelli and, although it complied many users kept re-uploading it to the site. The court has ordered YouTube to take actions against it happening and, after the failure of YouTube doing so, the site was blocked nationwide at DNS level.
News on this matter are available here (in Portuguese) and here (in English).
Predictably, many brazilians are annoyed and I've started to receive even SPAMs protesting on this blocking.
