Pakistan needs to ban Twitter

exactly, with twitter, facebook and google in the domestic market, there is no way Pakistan internet users will use Pakistan internet alternative services which mean they are killing those small/mediam companies.

India on the other hand boast their high tech on IT industry, while the domestic market was dominated by twitter, faceboo and google and many other US companies, India has no internet company which is relevant in the world.

They can close or lower your influence because there is nothing you can fight back unless you have alternative which you can threaten Twitter company.

Make a law, and hire company to do survey, if twitter unfair and bias, lower twitter internet connection or make it unstable as a punishment. If twitter do not follow Pakistan law, ban the twitter advertisement on Pakistan market.

The revenue and margin from Pakistan market is the leverage you can make twitter play by the rule, your rule, Not Yankees' rule.

Without the law, the enforcement, the alternetive, Yankees don't give a fck what Pakistanis like or dislike.

The curfew in IOK, the internet community has little coverage. It's all controlled.

If you give in the war of Info, you lose IOK.
All the usual Chinese bullshit. Problem with all the Chinese social media is that rest of the world does not even give a damn about it.
 
I am not sure where you get your information from. But there are 2 things I know for sure it is not true.

China did not have "Chinese version of Facebook" before Facebook was born. Facebook as a company was founded in 2004, it would be even earlier if you are referring to facemash, which is the precursor of Facebook, in 2003. The Chinese equivalent of Facebook is RenRen, which formed in 2005. Also, you would not call it "Chinese Version of Facebook" if that predate Facebook. You would call Facebook "The American Version of Renren"

Alipay is the world largest Mobile Payment platform, not the world largest epayment. The world largest epayment is wire transfer or TT (Which is a form of Electronic Payment). Which have 9 trillions USD transaction a day. Nothing even come close to beating that...

Actually 3 things.
WEchat is not the world biggest communication apps in the world. data suggest WeChat have 1120 millions (1.12 billions) active user, Facebook Messenger have 1300 millions. And WhatsApp at 1600 millions

Qzone born on 2013 Oct. renren sucks, it's irreverent on China social network.

Appreciate your other opinions about WeChat, I didn't do my homework, just type base on my memory. Sorry about that.
 
create your own twitter company or use weibo.com. China government will for sure give Pakistan control over weibo.pk. That will give Pakistan government the fair play ground on info war.

Otherwise, the Yankees control/huge influence what Pakistanis see on the internet or think. Look at HK rioters, those raise UK/US flags in the rally are traitors, and a pro-western society will have puppet regime installed inevitably.

Just look at HK, what western media reported and what's the reality on the ground, huge contrast.

Look at Gaza/Palestine issue, is it unbiased covered?

Look at what India is doing in IOK, how much media coverage over IOK curfew? Little, and why?

There is no free media, just like there is no free market, it's illusion. Monopoly is the best business on earth.

You like or dislike China media control to some extent, but China don't want herself be puppet, don't want her youngsters brain washed by western media and anti-China. Anyone who want to access twitter/facebook/youtube can spent dozens of dollars to get VPN for a whole year. There are VPN advertisement all over China internet.

Think about Soviet dissolution, think about what if all China cities become HK.

Nothing comes free, have a prospers and strong China/Pakistan or give in. Choice is clear.

I like this idea of China having its own facebook, twitter and other stuff instead of relying on foreign stuff the Chinese made their own which not only keeps the money in the country but also creates jobs. Every country should take notes about this as nobody owns the internet.

Social media especially facebook, instagram and twitter will always have a bias especially to the Americans. Whatever America says and does the tech companies follow that.
 
Pakistan needs to ban artillery shells because Indians are using it.

That is how dumb you sound.


For the love of God don't be another China.

The solution to Indians on Twitter is to have Pakistanis on Twitter battling them.
Running away like cowards and banning things is not going to do anything.
Banning is not solution. We have to face challenges upfront. We need to fight not run away.

India has over 4 times the number of internet users than Pakistan.
Also majority of the world is Islamophobic so they will also naturally back hindutva india against Pakistan

Also twitter platform has already itself has chosen to side with India with Kashmir simply because India is a far larger market than Pakistan so economic threats like @viva_zhao suggests wont work.

Its best to just make an alternative and just ban it.

It may work or may not. If you don't have alternative, it's damn sure won't work.

An alternative is a threat on twitter, and an option for Pakistan people. If you don't have an alternative, how can you ban it and persuade your people?

You have a stick in hands, and talk softly. I don't see other solutions.

Make a law, make sure twitter don't go to far. Protect your people is a decent politician's duty.

Even so, Qzone is formed in 2005 by tencent, QQ on the other hand, formed in 1999, however, QQ is not the same as facebook, QQ is like ICQ, which started in 1996.

Canada as a country is irrelevant on International arena. Everyone knew US has Canada's balls if any.
 
Twitter shamelessly deleted one million pro kashmir tweets and blocked thousands of accounts. In span of few months, indians have written 35 times to twitter. Typical indian rats crying, they cant face the truth. Govt should strictly convey msg to twitter or else ban it in Pakistan

LOL! And yet year after year we see a huge deluge of Chinese lining up to immigrate to Canada. Don't see it happening the other round. We must be doing something right, eh?

BTW, the topic in question is "Social Media". You can protest all you want on Chinese social media but no one will take notice. Its a stupid place filled with chicken scratch. It is as you have said : "irrelevant on International arena".

LOL! So yeah, post all the crap on Chinese social media. Won't get a single Knee-Haw from rest of the world.

It's called colonization. Your ancestor which is much smarter than you guys now took one of the best land on earth. And you knew people are opportunities, some of the Chinese got illegal money and fly away to Canada. It's ashamed that Canada love their money and hide those criminals.

There are business man who like to live with less people around, Canada is good place to live.

But still Canada has no political nor economic power at all, military power is a little bit more than zero. It's irrelevant on international arena. Canada is puppet regime, your always crying prime minister Trudeau win again.

Every country has different strategy, for now China is taking defense position. I don't agree all the policy China made, but it will change one day. Time will prove who is on the right side of history.
 
There is a centre in Hyderabad India where indian moderators for facebook decide on what content to remove from the rest of South Asia. What you see is islamophobic hateful abuses against Islamic figures and symbols, while using word hindu in comments would get an automatic community standards violation and get your comment deleted and you banned first for 48 hours and then for a month if they found more comments.


We saw this firsthand when facebook accounts were deactivated in July 2016 post Burhan Wani death.

Facebook handed over bans and blocked almost every content from Kashmir to quash the information from there. A human rights activist of indian origin account was deactivated while he was recording video call with a person from Kashmir. MAny accounts were blocked and deleted. India has used corporate to block information on digital platforms to cover up the issue.

Neither PTA nor the pathetic Pakistani Govt. did anything about it. Overseas Pakistanis also suffered silently.

Same thing is done by twitter. Pakistanis don't act in groups like indians in social media where they run in packs and report together in 50 or more numbers against a Pakistani tweet.
There is a pattern overseas Pakistanis take the bait while the local Pakistanis just vent and forget later, knowing this is a psy-ops war.

All the internet international cables Pakistan is a member of or using, India also has a stake there. What if someone in India tries to stop internet usage in Pakistan? Thia is why you see random indian content appearing on your playlist or on the right hand of your youtube video.

I don't watch Indian content so I've right clicked not interested on those r*ndian videos many a times which somehow appear again.

Pakistani Govt. and PTA has not safeguarded the rights of Pakistani netizens while ignoring the indian digital warfare.

Time to speak up about the biased and one-sided moderators policy of facebook and twitter, which can get really islamophobic and anti-Muslim yet not removed.

CPEC fibre optic cable is a solution for this. Pakistan can access all websites which filter indian content.

These social media companies need a reality check and it can be given collectively.

Or may be produce that class of businessman in Pakistan that will influence induction process of twitter and thus solution within.
At the moment, employees of twitter are siding with Indian govt because they are Indians.
