Indonesia Blocks Access to Steam, Epic Games

Wait what the fuck lol Freyja 金 guess you're not playing Stray D:

wait. why though?

^

apparently they want websites to cough up the money to register for a permit to be in their country

Thankfully I downloaded Stray yesterday, and I can load, play, and cloud save games I have on Stream. Can't access the store, though. If this fails, then I shall use the mighty VPN to play.

nvm whether it's viable or not (probably not), is there good motive to this?

Paypal and Yahoo are also blocked. Sheesh

wanderer : Nope, it's simply that the government can't really come up with proper system to block "improper sites", so they demand all sites to register or else they shall be blocked. It's hilarious when we tried to access PayPal, the error page said that it was blocked due to negative content
What's more, PayPal actually has been registered.

They had threatened Google and Meta a few weeks back, saying register or we block you. Funnily enough the government itself is heavily dependent on Google and Meta's services

.... oh. xDD

lol someone mentioned in FB that in the near future, if marcos jr is still in our government, it might also happen to our country...sooooo...

^ i was thinking this LOL

There are many Indonesians, as other people in other countries too, work as freelancers and receive income via PayPal. We are going on protest for this. It's just plain extortion. Think of thugs that ask "protection money" from stores.
People have started the counterstrike by hacking the ministry's sites

Freyja 金 : WHOOOOOOOOOOH!!!! that's such a party, i hope everything settles and your government stops this ridiculousness!!!

diba 5 days lang yan?

pero grabeng disruption.

Freyja 金 : Indonesianon?
