High-vote services get prioritized for outreach
Partially blocked in Syria. A detailed community investigation in February 2026 found that the Amazon Kinesis marketing page loads on all local ISPs without a VPN, but every functional path is geoblocked: the console shows an Access Restricted page and new account signup fails at the billing step with a Website Temporarily Unavailable error. The status was set to limited on this basis, and no outreach to the company is recorded for Kinesis yet.

Detailed community investigation of Amazon Kinesis accessibility from Syria. The marketing page at aws.amazon.com/kinesis/ loads fully without VPN, confirmed on all local ISPs. However, all functional components are blocked: (1) Clicking "Get Started" redirects to console.aws.amazon.com/kinesis/home...
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 Kinesis 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.
