    Quite alarming to report that all of the most popular Tibetan language blog hosting sites (except one) have been inaccessible for almost three weeks now.

    Although it is fairly common practice for Tibetan language blog hosting sites to be taken down (sometimes for “maintenance”) at times deemed sensitive by the authorites (see ‘All Quiet on the Tibetan Blog Front‘), this month holds no particular political significance as far as I can see.
