Hi Nadim, I can confirm Philipp's report - everything looks fine from my vantage point, too (Shanghai). The IP I see is 173.236.253.117, which is the same as from Europe. https access is possible.
I wouldn't trust GreatFire.org's throttling metric - they had listed one of my private sites as throttled once, too, and I really cannot imagine why anyone should want to throttle that boring thing. ;) Anyway, GreatFire is doing good stuff, but due to the nature of their project, there is no way they can release exact information how they measure, and thus for others to check. Ralph PS: While I was at it, I checked the current DNS rewriting for twitter.com. It still points to a Korean IP.
