While founder Chad Hurley would like to improve communications between countries via YouTube, many world governments aren't going to play nice. While Mashable readers guessed that Vietnam would be the next to block the site, it turns out that the North African country of Morocco has beaten them to the punch by banning YouTube beginning May 25th.
As we mentioned with the Thai ban, it's frequently the case that only some ISPs observe a block: in this case it's Morocco's biggest telecoms company Maroc Telecom. The other two major ISPs, Wana and Meditel, don't seem to have blocked the site yet, but that still means that the majority of Moroccans can't get access. While ISPs in Morocco are private companies, the Moroccan state is a major shareholder in Maroc Telecom.
