It is also a question of accessibility to an interactive media. The freedom to comment on article is the right of a common man. Here bloggers have enough tools to post on site. But how many common people knows it. Btw. DOT ordered to cancell the mass ban. Here I can access blogspot domains except the blocked. But still cant access typepad domains & geocities. But the mystery is why they blocked a site like http://dalitstan.org which is talking about dalit nationalism But I think issue here is not only the bloggers freedom.

Blogs are medium for inexpensive personal publishing. We are tired of main stream media and magazines, that looks for sentational "stories". Our life aren't mere stories, read and to be gone with the disposable paper stack. It is something to be talked about. Whose issues need to be conceptualized and debated. It need to be permanently etched somewhere. Blogs are condusive medium for that. So, in that sense, blogs were a boon. And the recent ban is a fiasco. So, those who are peeved by the blockade? Slap them back. Write more. Increase activity. Two more sites (in addition to to the ones you have mentioned above) for anonymously entering the blogs are http://pkblogs.com/ and http://anonymouse.org/ . Don't worry. If they block these too, we will find yet another such sites. -- Renjini Anivar, Very true. Blogs are medium for inexpensive personal publishing.
