There are a few reports trickling in from China about .Mac users being blocked from site access. This is apparently the case in several regions accross China, including:

  • Beijing
  • Shenzhen
  • Hunan
  • Hangzhou
  • Zhuhai
  • There is circumstantial evidence to suggest that this is a “Great Firewall” (censorship) issue versus a service outage problem as, according to anecdotal reports, updating and other .Mac functions are operational (e.g. www.mac.com, groups.mac.com are accessible)… yet Homepage.mac.com and Web.mac.com appear to be restricted.
