[Foundation-l] Wikipedia is blocking 80 percent of all broadband users in Thailand

In today's paper their was an article about True internet. The daughter of asianet handling ADSL connections. Asianet itself handles dialup.

Some exerpts from it:

"True's ADSL broadband Internet service has about 20,000 corporate users and more than 200,000 individual users, representing around 80 per cent of Thailand's broadband Internet market."

So wikipedia is currently blocking 80 percent of all Thai broadband users.

"Earlier this month, True said its total number of broadband subscribers would reach 500,000 this year, and revenue from its broadband Internet service would double to almost Bt3 billion."

So we would be blocking half a million Thais by the end of the year!! And that is just Broadband. Their Dialup members are a multiple of this!!!
