Dodging Nationwide Censureship With Searchles...Let There Be Online Video

Everybody loves a good rebel, yes? We recently discovered we've been aiding and abetting a network of rebel online video viewers worldwide this past year. Nationwide blocking of YouTube seems to be about as hot a trend as global warming...so hot right now. Turkey...check, Iran...check, Thailand...check, Saudi Arabia...check, check. (Who's next...Moldova? Say it ain't so).

Attempts to open the sites are met with a page reading: "The requested page is forbidden." (Iran) or something of the like - edicts passed down from senior judiciary officials. The actual sites are blocked as well as videos embedded on other sites. Searchles, however, downloads and embeds the videos in a certain fashion so that these video outlaws can still be viewed in these countries. Users can save videos to Searchles so that their friends in Turkey, Iran, Thailand, or Saudi Arabia can, in fact, watch them. Searchles says "damn the man." (Here's to being under the radar!)

So video rebels, we salute you. Let us know what you want us to post to Searchles and we shall (though ix-nay on the orn-pay...how do you think YouTube got blocked to begin with?)
