Hi,

I'm an Iranian and I live in Iran. Because of that the Amazon server don't let me to access godbolt.org

It says:

The Amazon CloudFront distribution is configured to block access from your country.

I want to just compare codes !!!!!!!!!

Hi there,

I'm really sorry: in order to comply with US law we are required to block "export" of certain compilers (usually commercial ones). We really _really_ don't like this but in order to keep our commercial compilers up on the site we have a blanket ban.

There are a number of ways to try and fix this on our side, but we don't have the resources right now to look in to it (nor the legal expertise to ensure we're not breaking any laws by doing so).

I appreciate this isn't the news you wanted to hear, but you can at least run a local copy of Compiler Explorer and get many of the compilers locally. The GitHub site at https://github.com/compiler-explorer/compiler-explorer/ has some instructions on this.

Once again, sorry,

Matt
