Dear all,
there have been repeated rumors that Overpass API is not reachable from
everywhere. This is of course not intended from my side.
There has been the conjecture that censorship is involved. As I do see
accesses from 214 countries (ISO 3166-2) in the world in the logfiles, I
simply do not know who is censoring where (see below). But there have
been incidents in the past (funnily, with an US provider), where a
technical misconfiguration locked out people.
So if you cannot reach any or all of the domains
overpass-api.de
z.overpass-api.de
lz4.overpass-api.de
please contact me (over this list, per private mail, or the OSM messing
interface if all else fails) to let me know. I will try my best to
resolve the case.
Best regards,
Roland

A list can be found at:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2
Not in the logfiles are:
AI, AQ, AS, AX,
BL, BQ, BV,
CC, CK, CX,
EH, FK, FM,
GD, GQ, GS, GW,
HM, IO, KI, KP,
MH, MP, MS,
NF, NR, NU,
PM, PN, PW,
SH, SJ, ST,
TF, TK, UM, WS
With the exception of Western Sahara (EH), Equatoial Guinea (GQ),
Guinea-Bissau (GW) and North Korea (KP), none of these countries is
bigger than a few ten thousand inhabitants - it reasonably could be that
just nobody is using Overpass API from there.
