Also, here's the proof of this (if you want the link, or if you still don't believe me, wait until I go to chat and PMing you, since the language... is... kinda... inappropriate for this wiki)

Actually, this is for Vimeo, but at the bottom of this, there's a piece of text that states Imgur is blocked in Indonesia (SCROLL TO THE BOTTOM IF YOU WANT!)

Video site Vimeo has been the hot topic of conversation in the past few days in Indonesia. The site was first blocked by the ICT ministry on Sunday, then unblocked, then blocked again today. Why the censorship in the first place? Because Vimeo allows “R-rated” content such as n*dity, but n*dity is deemed as p**nographic in Indonesia. Indonesian authorities are keen to block online p**n. Picture sharing site Imgur and popular online forum Reddit are blocked in Indonesia at present. Both became inaccessible earlier this month. Here’s a recap of what has happened in the Vimeo fiasco in Indonesia so far: On Sunday night, a number of Indonesians reported on Twitter (via DailySocial) that they weren’t able to access Vimeo anymore. On that same night, the ICT ministry tweeted that they weren’t blocking the video sharing site. That tweet then got deleted, with the ministry issuing a press release the next day regarding the block. Not all ISPs in the country received the ministry’s letter mandating Vimeo be blocked. It started with only Telkom Indonesia on Sunday, and then other web providers like XL Axiata, Indosat, and First Media followed suit in the proceeding days. Last night Detik cited ICT ministry’s Muhammad Budi Setiawan as saying that they will unblock Vimeo due to the online outcry. Kompas reported that same night that a few ISPs started to unblock Vimeo. But then things get even more confusing. YouTube and Vimeo being forced to cover up.

With Vimeo now joining Imgur and Reddit on the blacklist, is this the start of Indonesia’s version of China’s Great Firewall? Exact. I can't view images from Indonesia if they are from Imgur.
