Following ITWeb`s report on Monday that M-Web opened its content portals to non-M-Web subscribers over the weekend, the Cape Town Internet service provider has once again limited access of its sites to its own dial-up subscribers and leased-line Internet users.
According to an M-Web statement by William Marais, COO of M-Web e-media: "Access to these sites by non-subscribers can be attributed to a technical malfunction and M-Web is addressing the matter."
The electronic Mail & Guardian and News24 are only available to M-Web subscribers, while Supersport`s front page is accessible to users not accessing the Internet through an M-Web account, while none of the stories are available.
"Following a recent report that M-Web`s content Web sites are no longer blocked for non-subscribers, M-Web reiterates that, in line with its long-term strategy to go beyond simple Internet access, its status as a closed portal remains unchanged," says Marais.
