Yes facebook is't hosted in Pakistan but i think more than site it would effect Pakistani user.

Quite a serious issue this. however when you see the extent of all those OTHER laws bein inplemented i wont worry too much about such stupid bill. On other hand, it is something concerning the gov. Directly so you never know. Now to add to the uncertanity of this post i think such laws are made jus lt to be used as a tool to target some specific person or group WHEN required. They do not really effect general public.

Very true butt if the media team of Mariam Nawaz may present in this forum and may complain against some posts or threads then authorities can implement it.

I believe main target of this law is PTianzz on social media. In that case many PDF members would be on their hit list.

What about the law? your opinion
It may effect you also.

Up to three year imprisonment and fine of up to PKR 1 million rupees for making changes in a wireless set or a cell phone.

Does this include changing rom's on Android ?
What a kind of heck this law is?

Up to one year imprisonment or a fine of up to PKR 1 million for forcing an individual for immoral activity, or publishing an individual’s picture without consent, sending obscene messages or unnecessary cyber interference.

So if you are posting a group photo and some passerby came into image, you need to take his permission? else he can sue you for 1million, is it?

all these laws seems to tackle methods criminals use.. but they are so broad it might be used to harass ordinary people.. if you take my pic without my permission I should be able to ask you to take it down.. unless its some newsworthy story that trumps privacy concern..

We are studying the bill for its possible implications on Pakistan Defence. We will have an internal debate to see what we are going to do about it.
