Some of the country's biggest telecommunications providers are blocking access to a website selling a video game inspired by the March 15 terror attack. On Friday, Vodafone and Spark confirmed they had blocked access by their customers to the website selling the banned game. They were among multiple internet service providers (ISPs) who took the unprecedented step to block access to sites promoting extremist content following March 15.
