Twitter blocked in China
Unconfirmed reports suggest that Twitter co-founder Evan Williams said on Saturday that he has been informed that his microblogging site has now been partially blocked in China. The reports haven’t been confirmed as yet.
On being asked for the official word on the same, Williams said, “That’s what I’ve been told.” He further added that the company hasn’t received any direct or official confirmation.
Williams remarked that China could use a firewall to block access to its service.
When asked about media reports that Twitter was developing ways to get around the firewall, Williams said “We’re not actively developing any way to get around it.” He however stressed, “We’re for the free exchange of information.”
