SINET has confirmed that it received an order to block the Cambodia Daily website, and it believes all ISPs in Cambodia received this order.

Here's the tally so far based on my research:

ISPs blocking CambodiaDaily.com

MekongNet (some users)
WiCAM
SINET
Metfone

ISPs not blocking CambodiaDaily.com

Smart
Cellcard
OpenNet
Kingtel
Ezecom


Does anyone use Online or another provider and can you say if you have access?

Wow, that's pretty hardcore.

I for one am glad to see the government take such a strong stance against tax dodgers.

Opennet , judging by the number of porn/gambling adverts that pop up on my computer,, is based in Vietnam. I wonder if they got the message to block CD.

Changing your DNS settings to opendns will get around these blocks

Yes, someone who knows more about this tech stuff than I do was trying to tell me it was DNS blocking, but I'm too dumb to know what that is. Thanks.
