## About

Code quality and security analysis platform with automated static code review

## Activity summary

Restricted for users in Syria. Community testing in April 2026 found the main site and static pages load, but account signup via GitHub, GitLab and similar returns an access-denied error that blocks SonarQube Cloud, while contact and sales forms exclude Syria. The Community Edition still runs locally without limits. No outreach to the company yet.

## Community reports

- 2026-04-05 — Investigated. Community testing from Syria confirmed that SonarQube has restricted access. The main website (sonarsource.com) loads normally and all static pages are accessible. However, account creation via 1-click signup (GitHub, Bitbucket, GitLab, Azure DevOps) returns an "Access denied" error, blocking access to SonarQube Cloud and Learning Center courses. All contact and sales forms exclude Syria from their country dropdown menus. SonarQube Community Edition can be downloaded and runs locally without restrictions, and SonarQube for IDE works correctly in VS Code with local server connections.

## 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.
