If you tried to look at Rolling Stone magazine on the web from Saudi Arabia, you would find that access has been denied.
You would not have much luck either if you tried the American women's lifestyle site, iVillage.com.

These sites are among the 2,000 blocked by the Saudi Government, a Harvard Law School has found.

Most of the blacklisted sites were sexually explicit or about religion. But also caught in the net were sites about women, health, drugs and pop culture.
