UPDATE Thursday 27/9 @ 9.30am: Apologies for the slack service yesterday.

• Tim Ireland is now well and truly back in the saddle over at Bloggerheads: The Alisher Usmanov Affair. He now has a timeline of events describing everything that has a happened so far. Plenty of juicy detail in there with many a twist and turn.
• 291 people now linking to and blogging about this story. A lot of bloggers on the list are now following up on their original posts - there’s a lot of great stuff put there if you do a little browsing. I’ve noticed one or two people apologising about ‘coming late to the party’. Please, don’t. This isn’t a race, this about sharing views and showing solidarity. If you haven’t blogged this yet and would like to, or have but haven’t let us know, please do.
• The Moscow Times have reported on it. The story was slashdotted here.

UPDATE Tuesday 25/9 @ 12.30pm: While his Bloggerheads site is being restored, Tim Ireland is blogging about all this here. I’ll continue to maintain the list of people blogging and linking to all this if people still wish to send me links.

UPDATE Tuesday 25/09 @ 8.45am:

• 251 people now linking and blogging. Keep them coming - many thanks to everyone linking and pointing out links.
• The Register is now covering the story.
• As are Associated Press.
• Matthew Wardman has an MP3 of Five Live’s Pods and Blogs slot featuring Clive Summerfield, Mr Eugenides and Bob Piper.
• Beau Bo D’Or has some more spiffy blog buttons.

Let me know if anybody sees anything else we should be linking to.

HEADS UP 24/9: Mr Eugenides and Bob Piper will be on Five Live’s Pods and Blogs slot this evening, talking about all this. The show will also be available tomorrow the BBC’s listen again feature and as a podcast.

HEADS-UP: Pickled Politic’s Sunny Hundal is on More 4 News this evening (21/9) at 8pm talking about this and free speech on the web. (UPDATE 21/9 @ 10PM - Mike Power has the video.)

Tim Ireland’s Bloggerheads site is currently down after his webhost pulled the plug. You can thank the latest Russian (that should be Uzbek) billionaire to reach the UK. The details will come out in due course.

Tim’s currently also without email so if anyone needs to get hold of him, I’m happy to be the go-between and pass on any message by phone. My email address is at the top of the page.

This also means that the family of websites that Tim and Clive (whose site is also down) look after are also currently AWOL. So if you’re missing the online presences of Craig Murray, Bob Piper or prospective candidate for London mayor Boris Johnson, now you know why they’ve gone.

Tim and Clive are now looking for a new web home for themselves and the rest and are hoping to be back within 48 hours. If any sympathetic souls would help spread the word, it would be most appreciated.

Update: Some more background (via Garry). Those wishing to know more could do worse than a quick google.

Linkage: Thanks to one and all, I think we can safely say the genie is out of the bottle:

If you’ve blogged this and I’ve missed you, I apologise. Let me know in the comments and I’ll add you in - strength in numbers and all that.

UPDATE: A point of clarification: Of the blogs mentioned above, only Craig Murray and Tim Ireland made blog posts concerning Alisher Usmanov. It is these blog posts that were objected to by Usmanov’s lawyers.

Boris Johnson, Bob Piper and Clive Summerfield have lost their sites for the simple reason that they were hosted on the the same server as Craig’s and Tim’s sites and went the same way when the plug was pulled. They are NOT associated with the dispute with Alisher Usmanov in any way.

UPDATE UPDATED: Tim Ireland now has a webmail account for anyone wishing to contact him while his blog is being restored: bloggerheads DOT com AT googlemail DOT com

UPDATE UPDATED UPDATED: Mr Eugenides:

If you can be silenced for calling a businessman a crook, then you can be silenced for calling a politician a crook, too. Then it’s everyone’s problem.

UPDATE 22/09: Clive Summerfield, the mighty webmaster for these sites, has manage to secure back-ups of them all from webhost’s servers. All the data is now safe. He’s now working at uploading the sites to new servers at a different host.

UPDATE 22/09 @ 10am 12:30pm: 154 171 people are linking in to this story here and elsewhere. That’s a huge coalition built in less than 48 hours and encompassing people from all over the spectrum - many thanks to one and all.

UPDATE 22/09 @ 12:40pm: Matt Buck:

(Reproduced under CC licence).

UPDATE 22/09 @ 6:30pm: Facebook group and blog buttons. Mike Power’s buttons are a bit good as well (look under ‘Action Stations’ on his left sidebar).

UPDATE 23/09 @ 8.20am: Ministry of Truth has some rather smart blog buttons as well.

UPDATE 23/09 @ 8.30am: Clive Summerfield, Craig Murray’s webmaster writes:

People are probably encountering posts claiming that Fasthosts also edited a post on Craig’s blog. This was not the case, as anyone who read the comments to the post in question would have noticed.

As the intermediary (Craig’s site was hosted gratis on one of my dedicated servers at Fasthosts), I was trying to pre-empt a further issue, and made a misread correction. This was explained to Craig by email, and an apology given. Yes there are issues of censorship and restricted freedom of speech, but this instance is not one of them.

And believe me, selective editing is far too sophisticated for Fasthosts, they’d have just dropped the site.

The confusion lies in the fact that I hosted Craig’s site on my web-server, but I was more of a supporter, friend and webmaster. However, as I was hosting the site, webhost is also an accurate description. Fasthosts were merely supplying dedicated servers to me.

And for the record, a note was made that 2 changes had been made on legal advice. I’ve been hosting Craig’s blog for a number of years, and helped with the mirroring and distribution of the documents the FCO asked Craig to remove from his book.

Anyway, just trying to put this one matter/misunderstanding to bed, before folks get carried away in an Orwellian haze.

UPDATE 23/09 @ 8.50am: 191 people are linking in to this story here and elsewhere. That’s one hell of a show of solidarity from all over the spectrum - many thanks to one and all.

Please let me or Sunny know if anybody has any more links and we’ll add them in.

I’ve seen that some people have put a copy of this list of bloggers on their own sites. I’m very happy for people to do this and encourage you to do so if you so wish. To make life a little easier, here’s some cut and paste code which I’ll also keep updated. Stick it in your blog post and the list will appear.

UPDATE 23/9 @8.20pm: Back, back, back! Ladies and gentlemen: Bob Piper!

UPDATE 24/9 @7.30am: Interim Statement from Clive Summerfield and Tim Ireland:

We’d like to thank you all for your support and let you all know just what the hell has been going on, but we beg your patience as we continue with the practical measures required before we can fully and confidently speak our minds about this matter.

Our immediate priority is the restoration of the websites involved; this has been greatly complicated by the sudden closure of the entire account (as opposed to, say, the suspension or closure of the two websites directly involved in the Usmanov dispute). This total - and totally unexpected - withdrawal of service requires us to restore many websites with differing individual circumstances and formats. The removal of email used for the majority of these accounts has also further complicated matters, as the most immediate form of communication between many of the parties involved is no longer available.

Bob Piper is already back on deck, and we expect Boris Johnson’s weblog to be up and running shortly. Special arrangements are being made for Craig Murray as we speak.

A full statement is likely to follow the restoration of Bloggerheads and/or The UK Today, as it is at one of these websites that we would wish to host a full statement and manage the expected response.

UPDATE 24/9 @ 8.30am: 224 people following and linking to the story. Many thanks to everyone - keep them coming and maintain the momentum.

UPDATE 24/9 @ 9.15am: You’ve got to love this from Matt Wardman:

Needless to say, all the offending articles that Mr Usmanov and Schillings have attempted to remove from public view are available in the Google Cache. And you can find them by using the search term “schillings“.

As far as I can tell Schillings’ own website does not feature in the top 100 results for either Google UK or google.com, except for the “sponsored” link which everyone ignores.

Perhaps they may need a Search Engine Optimisation Consultant as well as a Public Relations Consultant.

I can recommend a good one.

His name is Tim Ireland, and he runs a website called Bloggerheads when it has not been bullied off the air.

MSM COVERAGE: Media Guardian, including Boris’ reaction, Channel 4 News, The Times, Slate, Sunday Herald, More 4.

UPDATE 24/9 @ 10.30am: Thanks to Matthew Revell, here’s Mr Eugenides‘ excellent take on events on Wolverhampton Politics.

UPDATE 24/9 @ 5pm: Bit late with this, but via Arseblog in the comments:

If you should be browsing your visitor stats for your blog and you find any IP addresses in the range 217.33.207.160 to 217.33.207.191, those visitors are from Schillings, Mr Usmanov’s lawyers.
