Hello
I still can access it alright (http://www.cnn.com/).
From what I've seen, it is last updated on
"UPDATED: 9:15 p.m. EST, January 15, 2007"
I presume my Internet gateway does not access the website through proxy servers.
Are you exactly sure it is blocked?
Best regards,
Siros

Good News & Bad News.
Bad News:
CNN.com is now completely blocked by Thai (junta) government.
(try http://cnn.com/ and you will be hold for a minute,
then got a fake error message, "504 Gateway Timeout")
Good News:
You can still access it via proxy servers abroad,
-OR- use "Tor" router program - an efficient way to circumvent censorship.
Download Tor:
