For some strange reason I cannot get blogspot to show up.

If I "proxify" it, it works. But just going to it normally it doesn't.

Is it just me or has the ROK banned blogs again?

Blogger and Blogspot are the same company, so it's strange that you could get one and not the other.

Anyway, I use Thrunet and have no problems.

Actually, this is the same for me.

I can update my blog, I just can't view it.

I'm having the same problem. I can view my Blogspot address fine when using a proxy server, but loading fails when I use my naked KT connection.

I'm a relatively new Megaspass customer...has this happened before? Has anyone tried calling customer support? Is it worth trying?

I'm actually in China, where blogspot blogs are blocked too, but typepad isn't. Someone told me that typepad and blogger blogs are blocked at the moment in Korea. Can you see these without the proxy?
