Today I just know that Reddit also being blocked in my country. And It's already happeningng for quite sometimes. Knowing the fact that Netflix is blocked by one biggest internet provider in my country is already annoyed me because I'm using that internet provider for my home wifi. Then now, I just knew that Reddit even being blocked literally in Indonesia. So no matter which internet provider you are using, as long as you have an Indonesian IP address then you will never able to access the Reddit page. The reason for this is silly for me. It because the government wants to protect the citizens from the negative effect of the internet and make sure citizen has a "healthy" internet activity and avoid things like piracy, gambling, and porn. But for God's sake, you still could find those content" attached in "normal" sites like Facebook or a blog. So their reason is not to make sense. Well, thanks to my lovely government, you just "teach" your citizen to cheat by using a VPN.

Ohhh, I didn’t know Netflix is blocked in your country. I don’t really use Reddit but Netflix is kinda essential to me so I would be really pissed off if it’s blocked here.

I not use any of them but i think reddit is blogging or forum site i think. What i seen in Amazon prime and those kind of web series also learn how to cheat people,parents and mostly unhealthy relationship. Its everywhere now.

I can never figure out when any government official likes to play Big Brother to all of us in the name of caring for the people.
