Yesterday, Gabon started blocking access to social media platforms.

We just published a short report, documenting the blocking of WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube in Gabon based on OONI data: https://explorer.ooni.org/findings/340845567300

OONI data suggests that the blocks are implemented by means of DNS interference, as DNS queries return NXDOMAIN errors. 

We thank community members in Gabon for contributing measurements!
