Pakistan's Internet censorship

[afriend]

This can happen in india too.. coz this part of the world have the largest population of relgious stupids.. including hindus.. christains and muslims.. so much of unneccessary beliefs and clutures.. many are ready to kill their own blood in the name of some religion of which they dont have a clue about..!! for eg.. we have had cases of honor killing in india.. and i am sure none of these bstrds would hve ever read or understood bhagvad gita or ramayana yet they are ready to kill people in the name of it.

I'm wondering when Internet connectivity itself will require a special permit ala Cuba or might just ban Internet altogether ala North Korea.

I hope Islam-fascists are happy as they've set a dreadful precedent.

When Ameicans feel carrying liquids on plane can be a possible threat for security of passangers, they ban all liquids including extruded breast milk for babies(real story) {thou u can take bottle of alcohol with u, & cigarette-lighters ofcourse},

When they feel muslims can be a possible harm, they make them wait at NSEERS counter for 5 hours while luggage security officers tear open ur bags coz u r not there on time to pick them, & the tag on bag says Pakistan,,,

When they deem muslims to be a potential carrier of "damp-squibs" they strip em naked & humiliate em,,,

When when they "allegedly" get attacked by cave-dwellers in Afghanistan & fail to scramble their planes they document that they preemtively killed 100,000+ in iraq.

On airport they can take a chicken sandwich out of ur hand & garbage it, coz it might infect their ppl with hamfull viruses.

India can ban Pak channels. France can ban niqab. They can make laws to jail u for denying holocausthttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holocaust_denial#Laws_against_Holocaust_denial..

All above r justifiable measures to which they have a right, for their security & health of their society, but when muslims deem sth unhealthy for their culture & ban it they r "dreadful islamo-fascist"... Ban might NOT stop that content from sprouting BUT atleast it sends out a message... "Mind ur language buddy"

Hi
all those 80,000 scumbags on fb are like those street dogs who have nothing better in their pathetic lives except to bark at every one who pass by.

true.

Pak now bans Blackberry services too

Islamabad: The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) has not only blocked usage of the social networking sites Twitter and Facebook, but also Blackberry services until further notice.

According to the Daily Times, the PTA has asked all cellular companies to put an immediate cap on all Blackberry services until further notice.

Sources said the PTA issued the directives on the orders of the Lahore High Court, which asked the government to make sure that Facebook is blocked for all Internet users in the country.

On Friday, following a ban on Facebook and popular video sharing portal YouTube, the social networking site Twitter was banned in Pakistan for carrying blasphemous contents.

Hundreds of Twitter users tried in vain to log in to their accounts as a message- “This site has been restricted,” was displayed on their computer screens.

A statement issued by the PTA said that it has blocked over 450 links containing offensive content.

In Peshawar, more than 500 people participated in a protest against Facebook for holding competitions of drawing caricatures of Prophet Muhammad. They chanted slogans against the government and demanded it to end all ties with countries where these ‘blasphemous’ caricatures are being published.

After Twitter & Facebook, Pak bans Blackberry services

they have 'good reasons' to do all of this, if you are still one of those people who tat 9/11 was a staged Drama by US to tackle the delusional concept of Kahilafat then hats off for you, if we will see these kinds of banners in London, what do you suppose them to do...

if we would have acted a bit wisely at the time of 'Danish Cartoons', we would not have seen this day, they have singled out the point at which we are 'irritated' & they are going to use it, the best thing is to ignore rather than boiling our own blood & doing exactly
what they want us to do

Seems These Mullahs don't even know the exact number of Zero's there in billion

STUPIDS!!!

Because the number are figments of imagination. When people who are proud of the ban want to justify their irrationality, they make up numbers and facts just like most people do when they know little about the subject they're dealing with.

Self glorification required posting such huge loss figures.

I had posted this yesterday:-

I received this mail today from my usually knee-jerk Pan-Islamist friend :- "The boycott made by the Muslims against Facebook last 2 dayz, their losses are reached to two billion Euro if we continue, aftr 7 days it would reach around 40 billion Euro. Plz spread as much as u can. Hazrat Mohammad (SAW) Believers dont stop this msg in inbox"

Facebook's revenue last year was 650 million USD expected to rise to 1.1 Bn USD this year. Somehow the interweb jihadis know about 2 Bn Euro losses which are more than Facebook's revenue. Who am I to question their numbers? I might be declared an apostate if i question their numbers even.

sometimes i wonder why they use things invented by infidels to spread their propaganda

Google chief suspects ulterior motive in Pakistan

SAN FRANCISCO: Google chief executive Eric Schmidt on Friday said he suspects suppressing political criticism is a factor behind the move to block YouTube and Facebook in Pakistan in the name of Islam.

“I'm always suspicious of these broad bans,” Schmidt told a gathering at non-profit public policy institute New America Foundation, of which he is chairman of the board.

“In every case we looked at, there is an official reason then another reason. There is an awful lot of political criticism they are blocking at the same time. I am very suspicious here.”

The Pakistan Telecommunications Authority (PTA) banned access to Facebook, YouTube and more than 450 links, including restricted access to Wikipedia in view of what it called “growing sacrilegious content”.

A Facebook page that fueled rage and protest in Pakistan was gone from the popular online social networking service on Friday but the popular social networking service said it remained blocked in that country.

He only suspects. I am sure that this is the real reason.

Indian Muslims call for ban on Facebook

NEW DELHI: Pakistan’s anger against religiously offensive web-based networking groups spread to India on Friday as Muslim protesters in Mumbai demanded a ban on the Facebook website. India has periodically banned websites, but mostly for their alleged links with terrorism.

United News of India said Muslims in the country’s financial hub protested against the Facebook website for hosting a competition of offensive caricatures.

In a protest meeting at Minara Masjid at Bhendi Bazaar and at Hindustani Masjid at Byculla in South Mumbai, various Muslim organisations demanded a permanent ban on Facebook and chanted slogans against the website’s operators.

The protest at Minara Masjid, conducted by Raza Academy, asked the government to take action against the organisers of the competition.

Protesters blocked traffic at Bhendi Bazaar.

At the Hindustani Masjid, Islamic scholar Maulana Abdul Jabbar Kadri said: “We cannot tolerate such things which hurt the sentiments of millions of Muslims across the world.”

India is home to the world’s second largest Muslim population and it became the first country to ban The Satanic Verses, with Iran and Pakistan following its lead.

The ban on the book came after nationwide protests by Muslim groups who saw the book as insulting to their religion.
