    Sadly I think this has something to do with the ahhem "online safety" act...   When I go to look at a posted image, it also says not available in your region... Hmmm...

    It's not available through a VPN either at the moment so might be an internal issue. Getting an 'over capacity' error when I try to access from "somewhere else".

    edit: works on VPN now

    Tis a shame but people were seeing how far they could push it with "the gif" being uploaded a few times a week for example. If it's still out tomorrow then that might mean it's fooked

    What are you doing working at eight minutes past eleven? Do I need to call HR?

    I actually dont have a VPN but this link came up on Google.. Cant actually go to the site to see it though D   perhaps someone with a VPN can go look   
    This is what it says in the link
    . Imgur needs to comply or be blocked. Isn't this censorship? Yes, yes it is. It's the first mass-blocking of websites in a Western democracy. Why are we

    So, unless we have a VPN or go abroad, many of us now have Imgur accounts and photos we no longer have access to?

  • i have mullvad vpn and imgur works fine for me (have it set to germany atm).

    i got vpn exactly because of the bs that the govt are pulling with the censorship etc (sorry protecting the children).

    It looks like Postimage is going the same way, too - I can get into my account, but half the images show as blue blocks showing "503 Service unavailable - the server is temporarily busy, please try again later".

    The others, where I can see the thumbnail, just won't open.

    * edit * wrong - it just takes a couple of minutes to open from the thumbnail...
