Facebook Users Suffer Blockage in Cambodia


(PR Web Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) (PRWEB) September 03, 2013 In a report by Humanitarian News dated 15th August 2013 (http://humanitariannews.org/20130815/why-was-facebook-blocked-cambodia), on 7th of August 2013, Facebook was inaccessible in Cambodia for a few hours leaving media freedom groups suspicious of a ploy to restrict social media sites in the country.



As reported, Metfone, Cambodia’s most popular internet provider was responsible for the blockage and civil societies were up in arms asking Metfone to explain the sudden blocking of Facebook and seeking clarification as to why Metfone continues to block sites in the country, asking for further clarification on the said technical issues that caused the block.

Following this recent unfolding, the ProXPN team have come out to reassure browsers in Cambodia and worldwide that they endeavor to ensure that all users enjoy the peace of mind that they require while browsing the internet and using online services.


ProXPN, amongst other services offers a private internet subset exclusive to users, which comes at no charge through connecting to the internet via a secure ProXPN VPN where users can access any website or web service and enjoy a secure and exclusive online experience eliminating any fear of blockades.

With its services ProXPN will continue to address the current problems facing internet users through such government barriers while maintaining their stand that everyone should enjoy access to information at ease.
