High-vote services get prioritized for outreach
Blocked in Syria, confirmed by community testing in March 2026: the CloudFront marketing page loads, but starting the service redirects Syrian users to AWS account signup, which fails with a Website Temporarily Unavailable error. The team contacted Amazon in March 2026, naming CloudFront among the blocked AWS services; no response has been recorded yet.
Contacted Company
Official outreach email sent to Amazon specifically naming CloudFront among the blocked AWS cloud services requiring access restoration for Syrian users.
You can help change this. Syria's political situation has changed—all sanctions have been lifted. Many companies just haven't updated their policies yet. If you work at Amazon CloudFront or know someone who does, share our resources with their legal or compliance team. Sometimes all it takes is one person asking the right question.
Tips for advocating: Reach out to legal, compliance, or policy teams. Reference the lifted sanctions. Point to competitors who have already unblocked Syria. Every voice matters.
