Video game-streaming service Twitch has been blocked in China.
Since 20 September, Twitch's website has been unreachable from the country and its app has been removed from the local Apple App Store.
Twitch has confirmed that it is being blocked but it has not said why the authorities have imposed the restriction.
The service was cut off shortly after enjoying a significant bump in popularity among Chinese gamers.
The Games was not broadcast on state-run media in China, forcing many to use Twitch to see the gaming tournaments.
The steady shutdown of access to Twitch was logged via social media in China.
Often, said Ms Liao, these bans and blocks are put in place before anything controversial takes place. »
