India blocks Supabase domain
Change
India blocked access to the supabase.com domain under Section 69A of the Information Technology Act, 2000, cutting off many developers' backend services in India and prompting Supabase to advise users to use virtual private networks or change DNS resolvers.
Why it matters
Projects that rely on Supabase-hosted back ends will face immediate service interruptions and must implement alternative hosting or routing to stay online. The statutory secrecy around Section 69A blocking orders limits affected parties' ability to obtain reasons or seek prompt judicial review.
Implications
- • Independent developers using Supabase-hosted back ends in India must migrate critical services to alternative hosting providers or implement routing workarounds such as VPNs or alternate DNS resolvers to maintain availability.
- • Internet service providers' network operations teams in India must verify and, where necessary, correct DNS and filtering configurations to ensure the blocking order is implemented accurately and to avoid collateral outages.
