Saudi Arabia's communications authority unblocked Facebook on Saturday after shutting down the popular social networking website for a few hours. An official with Saudi's Communications and Information Technology Commission said the kingdom blocked the site briefly Saturday because the content had ``crossed a line'' with the country's conservative values.
The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorised to speak to the media, later said the communications authority lifted the ban. The reason the commission reversed its decision hours later was not immediately clear.
