Contacted Company
A community volunteer sent an outreach email to Cambly at help@cambly.com requesting restoration of access for users in Syria. The email referenced the 2025 OFAC General License and EU sanctions lift, highlighting the importance of English language learning tools for Syrian users.
Investigated
Tested from Syria on macOS desktop using Chrome. Cambly.com returns ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED with the message "www.cambly.com refused to connect." The service actively refuses connections from Syrian IP addresses.
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 Cambly 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.
