Weebly is an American company and I can only take this response at face value as being the genuine sole reason for the blocking of traffic. I'm sure it is though I did wonder for a moment whether politics might be playing a little part here. Either way it is a real shame as quite a few Cuban people have used the site in the past (it has been used unhindered for the last three years) but will now no longer be able to unless Weebly can develop a way to bypass the block for individual websites like this.
While we were over in Cuba I was told by a Cuban friend that he was unable to access this website recently and he asked if I knew why. I didn't, it was working fine here in England before we left but when I tried it over there it simply timed out. When I got back I thought I would contact Weebly to see if they knew why. I half expected them to say that it must be Cuba that was blocking traffic but in fact they came back and said "I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing this problem. For security reasons, Weebly has made a decision to block traffic from a number of countries. I'm sorry this happened out of the blue and is affecting your site. We did not mean to harm good sites in this process. Unfortunately, at this time, we don't have a way to bypass the block for individual accounts."
