Re: YouTube in Pakistan
That sexually explicit blasphemous clip is still there. Give me one good reason why Pakistan should lift ban on youtube?
I haven't watched that clip and never will because I don't want to promote the idiot who made it, by giving him an additional "View".
But this is the first time I'm hearing that it was sexually explicit. Was it?
Re: YouTube in Pakistan
Lifting or not lifting ban on youtube is not the main issue , we should have some alternative of all the good sites, why we have all stupid things and not the good things, all good things (good quality stuff) are of anti-islamic people. Both ways we are the one suffering, so many good islamic lectures informative videos are on youtube, we have no access to it now, if we had a site of our own we wont be needing youtube, just putting a ban is not enough they must work on alternatives of not just a website but all the good products we use of such anti-islmaic

It is ironic that the people who protest on the streets, blow up vehicles and destroy shops are ones who dont even use the internet or Youtube.

Very valid point.
Re: YouTube in Pakistan
Why dont Pakistani's create their own internet only for the Muslims? Just think about it..our own Facebook, Google, Youtube, Twitter etc.
They can then upload some holocaust denial videos and NOT ban them even if the Jews protest in Israel (and blow up a few buses).

they would run on kuffar made servers and you'll access them using kuffar made computers.
Lets begin with the mouse. How will an "Islamic" mouse look like?

Then don't say that Youtube does not have sexually explicit clips.
Re: YouTube in Pakistan
Hasnt the ban gone on for too long now? I was not in favour of blocking it altogether in the first place. We are the ONLY islamic country left which has blocked YouTube altogether. This is bordering on ridiculous now. Govt is more afraid of religious brigade rather than keeping it blocked on principal.
PTA should have used a new internet facility called Content withheld for countries.
How dare you be reasonable?
Re: YouTube in Pakistan
Correct me if I am wrong, but anyone can still view it via proxy so why bother banning it

Re: YouTube in Pakistan
KARACHI: Pakistan Telecommunication Authority is once again in talks with Google to unblock video sharing site YouTube.
“PTA hopes to unblock YouTube in two to three weeks,” PTA Chairman Farooq Awan told The Express Tribune on Thursday, adding they were in talks with the internet giant.
On September 17, PTA blocked the video sharing website to restrict access to an anti-Islamic video that sparked riots in many Muslim countries.
The internet giant blocked access to the blasphemous video in Libya, Egypt, Indonesia, Malaysia and India, but it didn’t block the video in Pakistan. The government, therefore, directed internet service providers (ISPs) to block the entire site.
The Express Tribune has already reported that PTA has received a directive from the Ministry of Interior with several instructions about unblocking of YouTube, permanent blocking of unregistered SIMs, Mobile Number Portability (MNP) and automated web locking.
The ministry, in its directive, told PTA to restore the video sharing site and manually block blasphemous content using PTA’s system, according to a source familiar with the matter.
However, PTA doesn’t have any system to manually block thousands of links leading to the anti-Islamic video. It has to be done through ISPs, which is virtually impossible as this will require a huge amount of time and effort.YouTube(http://tribune.com.pk/story/466437/youtube-may-be-unblocked-in-two-to-three-weeks/)
Re: YouTube in Pakistan
There shouldn't be all together ban on the youtube or any other site. Pakistan need to use technology and sophisticated DPI vendor products to silently block threatening or illegal material as other countries silently does. However getting those products and their licenses is not easy until uncle sam approves.
Re: YouTube in Pakistan
I agree, thats what I believe in too but if below is true then I think it was good to block entire site :k:
