Blogs are Improper Content in Egypt
TeData, the largest IP based Services provider, company majorly owned by the government has blocked Blogger.com due to improper content.
I don't want to start whinning about freedom of speech, but blogs are tools for everything, could be used to riot, or for just random diary writing (that we call reflection :-P ) as almost all of us do... Not mentioning that rioting is fine in the first place
Reminds me of Taliban burning TVs and Movie Theatres sometime ago, because These are potentially evil tool.
