Tarig,
Just going out on a limb here, but who says the sites in the US are blocking
instead of the country itself? Maybe the Sudan government is blocking
access to the sites for whatever reason.

Hi Tarig
This is a bit like asking who controls friendship. Of course nobody does.
However if certain friends of yours are going to impose conditions on you,
you have to go along with it or find new friends.
One way round it is to use other friends as interlocutors, simply by using
proxy services, or, in more intense situations, something like Kaleidoscope
