High-vote services get prioritized for outreach
Blocked in Syria, confirmed by community testing in March 2026, where the site returns a regional block page enforced by a security firewall on its web host. The team sent an official outreach email to the company in April 2026 requesting that the restriction be reviewed. No response has been received yet.
Contacted Company
Official outreach email sent to dpo@appen.com requesting review of Syria IP restrictions under the current OFAC and BIS framework.
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 Appen 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.
