Google banned in Thailand????????

[tayto]

I always use Google Thailand in English as my homepage on the computer.
This is what I have been getting for the last two days.

Sorry, the web site you are accessing has been closed by Royal Thai Police due to inappropriateness such as pornography, gambling or contain any information which is deemed to violate national security.

Is Google banned or what????????????

[kingwilly]

probably.

[watterinja]

Google image can bring up all sorts of stuff, when the filters are turned off...

[Spitfire]

I've got Google at the moment in Korat.

[Thetyim]

I always use Google Thailand in English

I use the same and have done for years but for the past few days it has repeatedly "lost" my preferences and comes up in Thai language. I have to keep re-entering my prefs.

Anyone else got the same ?

[The Fresh Prince]

I've always just used the Thai one, I can't read Thai but there's only one button you need to press.

Just checked and the English and Thai versions are working fine here.

[Thetyim]

I can't read Thai but there's only one button you need to press.

Umm...... It keeps losing all my saved preferences, not just the language

[filch]

I don't have a problem here, and I use iGoogle.

[nidhogg]

No probs here (bangkok) using google.

[FlyFree]

Use google.com/ncr

Sounds like the same issue someone else was having with the ThaiVisa (I think??) website. Are you using True Internet by any chance? Apparently it was someting related to that.

Certainly no issues accessing here (CM).

Hello. I have problems, plenty. And I use Google

I get that occasionally too, something to do with the cookies I think?

[Loy Toy]

Google............A OK my end in Pattaya!

[Thetyim]

Yes.
As far as I know the cookie should only be accessable by myself and google.
So if I ain't deleting it then why is google ?

[AntRobertson]

Good question. I've had it occur to me after I've deleted my own cookies and also other times apparently at random.

Coincidentally I was reading this earlier (I've no idea if it's actually relevant or the cause of the problem), it's interesting in that apparently Google periodically does 'resets': John Naughton: Google's worrying wizardry can make you invisible - Technology - NZ Herald News

Yes and I am not happy. The CAT stooges need to stop dicking with the buttons.

[Thetyim]

Just happened again and I'm pissed off with it now.

Thanks for that link Balders, I'll give it a whirl

[BugginOut]

Google can't delete cookies off your computer.

[chitown]

I could see Thailand banning websites that do not have .co.th at the end of them!!

[Thetyim]

Google can't delete cookies off your computer.

Sorry, my mistake.
The cookie is not being deleted it is being modified.

[DrivingForce]

Thetyim as I recall, didn't you download that SOL cookies removal tool the other day? I did too and I'm having problems as well, no issues prior.. Just a thought...moving on now..

[dirtydog]

think you will find google is redirecting you due to your ip, your in thailand so you must want thai language google, google is trying to localise all searches
