Iran blocked wordpress.com

Iran blocked accessing to wordpress.com blogging platform since Sunday evening June 13, 2010.

I heard from some of Iranian bloggers that their wordpress blog is not blocked. I didn't think that government might have blocked whole wordpress.com service because there are too many pro-government blogs on the same platform. I thought it might be usual blocking of individual bloggers but as it appears I was wrong.

There a good chunk of Iranian bloggers utilized wordpress.com as their blogging platform.
