It appears to be a false alarm. Flickr’s working fine now. Disregard this post 😉
Just received a message that popular photo management and sharing application Flickr is unavailable in Georgia. The sender asked me about the situation in Turkey, since a few weeks ago when Blogger/Blogspot was banned in Turkey, it was also unavailable in Georgia.
Guess what? Flickr is unavailable in Turkey also. Could it be a new ban? Who knows.
I guess we will find out soon. Either it will come back online, or we will see something like the below:

Thanks Bas, for this fast reaction Best regards, Hans
I can see why it would be banned in Georgia, if someone put up controversial pictures that could compromise the government. There’s been a lot of controversy there over the battles with South Ossetia and Abkhazia. But what happened recently in Turkey?
