hi every one. Why is it that Qtel block some websites? Yes i understand censorship, but what if you are already above minority age, and it is just a must that u see the site?

Is there any way to bypass Qtel censorship?

If so, is it legal or i mean, the one who may be found out bypassing Qtel censorship can be apprehended?

I will appreciate your correct opinion guys.

Thanks.

Netman, just remember that this an islamic country and the censorship is for everybody regardless the age.

You could use some of these "proxy/bypassers" but in the end you could be facing consequences.

Also bear in mind that the authorities do monitor these "public/social" sites within Qatar and those acting (or trying to act) above the counrty established rules could be in trouble.

Regards!!
