Unregistered VPNs getting banned in Pakistan

It seems like you didn't bother reading the article, PTA isn't concerned about any individual using vpn's they are concerned when illegal businesses are using them for illicit activities which brings the whole country a bad name, oh and still they are not banning them all they want them to be registered with the state to monitor their traffic.
I read it and PTA better raid their offices instead of lazily blocking all VPNS
 
This is already happening world wide. I think this also already happens in Pakistan. A bill would only be a formality.
Yes Sir I am referring to that bill. I think it was passed in 2014 or 2015 in our National Assembly.
 
The Great Firewall implementation has started in Pakistan. This is the first step.

That fascist Niazi dreams of having the powers of Xi Jinping and is no surprise that he sings praises of China.
 
I had read in a newspaper that Pakistan was outsourcing the internet traffic analysis to a Canada based firm who will monitor users.
 
These are like free games like epic offered gta 5 premium edition which was not for Pakistan but i got it with using a vpn.

A completely false and an untrue statement. Proof:

And no one really cares about old games if one really wants to get some old game they can get it on sale and if someone doesn't want to pay for them, there are other ways (morality is questioned there, but there are good arguments on both sides even if one follows that route).

The point is you want to justify something, do it but don't put false statements like these, which are untrue.
 
To be neutral, there are websites or content that are country specific. For example you have videos on youtube that are not allowed by the company or whoever it is in our country. So yes there are exceptions like that. Or if you want to watch certain channels, like Crackle, it is not allowed in Pakistan and you have to use VPN.
 
The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority has issued a public notice stating that all users must register their Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) by the end of June. Failing to do so could result in IP addresses being blacklisted and other “legal actions,” being taken against users.

Sources have confirmed that many corporate connections have been found to be using VPNs to generate grey traffic and/or provide illegal or unregistered Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) services. These connections were allegedly working as call centres and providing data entry operational services and have since been blocked by the PTA.

Grey Traffic is defined as the use of illegal telephone exchanges which bypass the legal route to make international calls. Presently, several companies are running call centres in Pakistan using VPNs to make it look like they are in the US (or any other country).

The PTA aims to eliminate Grey Traffic in Pakistan as soon as possible and have started blacklisting and blocking many corporate clients of specific Internet Service Providers (ISPs). These ISP have been notified of the illegal activities and have been instructed to notify their clients. These clients must then, either register their VPNs with the PTA before the 30th of June or face the disconnection of their services alongside other legal actions.

The public notice issued states that the, “Use of any mode of communication such as VPN by means of which communication becomes hidden or encrypted is a violation of PTA regulations.” Users are urged to, “register their VPN with PTA through their respective Internet service provider till 30-06-2020.” The full public notice is available on the PTA website.

Vpn is not only for ****.
Many times companies offer USA only or regions only digital products wich users cannot get without using a vpn or ip adress of that country they offer the products.
