## About

Edge cloud platform providing content delivery network, edge computing, and web application security services

## Activity summary

Blocked in Syria, confirmed by community testing in May 2026, when access from Syrian IP addresses returned a geographic-restriction page denying sign-ups, the dashboard, and the API. A community volunteer emailed the company in May 2026 asking it to review its Syria policy in light of eased sanctions, but no response has been received yet.

## Community reports

- 2026-05-27 — Verified. Community testing confirmed that Fastly is blocked in Syria. Accessing Fastly from a Syrian IP returns a geographic-restriction page reading «We're sorry. Online sign ups, as well as access to the Fastly app and API, are not available in your location.» Sign-up flows, the Fastly dashboard, and API access are all denied from Syrian IPs, making the service unusable from inside Syria. Status updated from unknown to blocked. (evidence: https://api.unblocksyria.com/files/evidence/ydsp09p6wmqbxu4qs69adi5d/f0srvemv1jbu56x9ilhvpl2l-screenshot-20260527-154643.png)
- 2026-05-21 — Contacted Company. A community volunteer emailed Fastly's general counsel and abuse teams at gc@fastly.com and abuse@fastly.com requesting a review of Fastly's Syria-related policies and access restrictions and asking whether services can now be made available to Syrian users and organizations. The email cited the late-2025 lifting of the comprehensive U.S. embargo on Syria, the removal or substantial easing of EU sanctions, the OFAC sanctions programs page, and supporting documentation from unblocksyria.com/resources, noting growing demand for CDN, edge computing, and web security services among Syrian businesses, NGOs, and developers. The corporateaffairs@unblocksyria.com address was CC'd. No response has been received yet.

## Context

These are geo-restrictions the companies applied themselves, not filtering by Syrian ISPs and not a legal requirement. US and EU sanctions on Syria were lifted in 2025. See https://unblocksyria.com/llms.txt for the regulatory summary and https://unblocksyria.com/en/about for citations to the specific orders and regulations.
