High-vote services get prioritized for outreach
Blocked in Syria, confirmed by community testing in March 2026. The landing page loads and a demo project page is reachable, but clicking "Get started" redirects to the AWS Console, which returns a 400 "Access Restricted" error stating AWS does not provide services in the user's region. The team sent official outreach to the company in March 2026, naming SageMaker among the blocked services; no response or resolution yet.
Contacted Company
Official outreach email sent to Amazon specifically naming SageMaker 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 SageMaker 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.
