Can you send out a tweet from the Cryptbin or your personal Twitter account stating that you haven't received any communication? Retweets should help raise awareness on this.

Thanks!

As far as I can tell, the ban has not yet been enforced. I can access both https://cryptbin.com/ and https://snipt.net/, though my ISP is limited only to Bangalore area.

Edit: Well, it looks like pastebin & dailymotion are banned, but cryptbin and snipt aren't

All 4 seemed to be blocked from my office in Kerala. Github is up so they probably have resolved the issue. A week back Github became mysteriously unavailable (with github status showing no downtime). I guess now we know what happened.

I can access both https://cryptbin.com/ and https://snipt.net/ from MTNL Mumbai.

cryptbin and snipt are blocked here (Vodafone network). I presume all the major ISPs have implemented the bans.

I think you should not have commented if you knew that your ISP doesn't care to enforce government ordered bans (I know some small ISPs can't afford the hardware to implement URL blocking.).
