Landing pageWorks

The Last.fm website opened from Syria on desktop: its pages loaded normally, with no block or error page, while the tester browsed with a signed-in account.

Sign-upWorks

A tester in Syria was using their own Last.fm account, with its own listening history, from a Syrian connection. The account creation step itself was not captured.

Sign-inWorks

Frequently Asked Questions

Partly. The core use of Last.fm works in Syria, but something else about it fails or has not been checked. This page lists what works and what does not.

Many international services blocked access to Syria due to previous sanctions and compliance policies. Even as sanctions are being reviewed, some companies have not yet restored access. Unblock Syria tracks these services and advocates for change.

You can help by voting on this page to show demand, sharing it on social media, and contacting Last.fm directly to request they restore access for Syrian users.
