Original Note:
Twitter has never been blocked by the UAE, however back in 2008 it was blocked by the Emirate of Dubai. This is a first-level administrative division which makes its own laws with similarities to a US state or German bundesländer. https://www.accuracast.com/news/twitter-banned-in-dubai/ https://www.zdnet.com/article/twitter-blocked-in-dubai-over-inconsistent-values-wheres-the-next-ban/
