Los blogueiros de Brasil denuncian: “A partir del 11 de febrero de 2004, Globo.com, el operador de Blogger en Brasil, estableció el bloqueo del acceso internacional a todos los weblogs registrados en su servicio. El bloqueo se realizó sin previo aviso, dejando a innumerables usuarios del servicio sin acceso a sus propios blogs, y por un período indefinido”.
Ya circula en la Red la petición Liberem o acesso ao Blogger Brasil, que les animo a suscribir.

Okay, so Globo, which owns the Google-Blogger franchise in Brazil, suddenly announces that the blogs it hosts will no longer be accessible from outside Brazil, and that users of the service will not have access to their blogs until they pay for a Globo subscription. Isn’t that amazing? No prior notice.
Brazil has one of the largest blogging populations per capita in the world, according to the NITLE Blog Census … and there are a lot of capita. True, most of the capita are peasants and most of the bloggers are teenaged girls, but there also a lot of unemployed journalists who do serious and valuable work on free blogging services.
I’ve been trying to circulate instructions for getting around the blockade by using a public proxy server in Brazil, which is working for me.
There’s also a petition online: I’d love to see this get around and get some real support from the gringo blogueirada. When a butterfly stirs its wings in Brazil, who’s to say that it won’t subsequently hail in Northern Angloblogistan?
