Check out Herdict for the news on who is blocking the Internet

If you want to check out which countries are blocking access to the internet,check out this site HerdictWeb.

It aggregates reports of inaccessible sites, allowing users to compare data to see if inaccessibility is a shared problem by crowdsourcing data from around the world.

Its herdometer keeps up to date with news of sites that are being blocked.

Not surprisingly at the moment,Iran and China stand out in the reported number of blockages of Facebook, Flickr, Twitter and YouTube as well as Mexico.

The site is the brainchild of Jonathan Zittrain,
