Lebanon

There are numerous reports out of Lebanon that people are banned from accessing Grindr on the country’s public network. Beirut Pride first reported the news in a Facebook post. ‘For some people, the application doesn’t log in,’ they explained. ‘For others, profiles and conversations do not load, unless accessed from a private wifi network.’ They further describe the alleged ban as a ‘new attack on the freedoms in Lebanon’ by shrinking ‘national cyber access’ based on private relationships and sexuality.
