It is not every day that Saudi Arabia contacts you!
Two days ago, we received an email from Saudi Arabia notifying us that, as of Sun Jul 19 2009, everybody in Saudi Arabia is being blocked from playing Evony.
The government of Saudi Arabia may have taken offense to the Evony Internet advertisements using beautiful women with some skin showing.
For example, here are Evony’s latest ads
The King Abdel Aziz City for Science and Technology (KACST) is responsible for the Internet protocols in Saudi Arabia. Currently, there are around 750,000 sites blocked and filtered on the pretext of protecting Islamic values and culture. Unfortunately, if the user does try to circumnavigate the block, they will be having their use tracked and monitored.
China also has the power to block all of its citizens from any website they deem inappropriate, but as of this writing, has not blocked Evony.
