Why is this site, like Facebook, banned in the Red State?

Missed this site so very much. Good to be home in the US.

Why?

Did you lose a bet or something?



:)

Maybe!, but no, I work in Thailand as a pilot and the flight simulator is in Zhuhai. It is the largest complex of modern flight simulators in the world. The place looks like it could be from a James Bond flick.

The real question to consider is did they ban us or did we ban them? Welcome back.

I hope this is not true. I might be living in China in a couple years.

Vietnam blocked FB and other sites but never lowly ol' VolNation.

The way around it is to have a VPN. I have one, but it had grown to a point that the government there had found a way to block it. Gotrusted.com is one that works, but you have to have it loaded prior to arrival as you cannot download it there. For my iPhone, I have Photon, but it is a bit slow to say the least.

I'm not worried about it. I'll have a few PhD's in computer science to help me.

I'm just surprised VolNation made it to the ban list.
