YouTube ban in Pakistan

YouTube is banned in Pakistan from a very long time. The reason is that someone has made the movie against the last prophet of Islam and someone has uploaded it on YouTube. So instead of banning the link, government of Pakistan banned the whole website.

If you see all around the world, if the government have any objection on anything on the web, they simply block the link of the website, no one bans the whole website except undemocratic and authoritarian regimes.

The people in Pakistan made an outcry about this movie and the movie got more publicity and free marketing, which Muslims mostly did.

If you don't like a movie or if a movie is against you or against something you are related to or you got offended anyhow then don't speak about it, it will die on it’s own eventually. In the world of media if you make an outcry, you are giving something an unnecessary importance and attention then definitely media will jump on it.

Whoever is associated with the showbiz world, there is a saying that every publicity is good publicity, so good or bad doesn't matter they are getting a free publicity.

Even I came to know about this movie when there was an outcry from the Muslims of Pakistan. Then I dig into this matter and came to know that this movie has been released a year ago and it is an insult to the last prophet. Due to an uproar the movie got limelight and more people came to know and watched this movie.

Due to this uproar, the government of Pakistan got a chance and banned the whole website, instead of blocking a single link.

What is the reason behind it?

As everyone knows that YouTube is one of the most visited website in the world for different reasons, one of which is 'information'. So the main reason to ban a whole popular website is to control the flow of information.

Because there are many videos of vote rigging in Pakistan and many other videos which shows and give information to a common person of Pakistan whoever have access to internet about their corrupt government.


So the main reason to ban the whole website is to control the flow of information and to stop people who were becoming aware of the corruption of the government by watching different videos of corruption in Pakistan

To, Dione Hamilton & Arron Morley Dear Sir or Madam:             I have accepted your invitation, which I just got now. I will be there on Monday 24 th September 2012 at 06:00 PM at Burger King Lady Bay Retail Park. First thing first, will you please tell the GM Yanna Li and the senior members of staff, of Burger King, Lady Bay Retail Park, to stop spreading rumours about my family and me.

I have no objection with the presents of Louise Mounsey in the investigation. Inste...

Pakistan, A Herd of Sheep

It's very surprising and shocking to see that how Pakistani people living in the West are concerned about Syria. I like to ask these people that what about people living in Pakistan. Why don't these people show their concerns for their country of origin?   Why don't they show concern about the corruption of the government? Why don't they show concern when elections are rigged? Why don't they demand for voting rights for Pakistani nationals living in foreign countries? Why don't they demand for electoral reforms in Pakistan if they claim that it's a democratic country? Why don't they show concern about feudal lord and landlord system of the society? Why don't they show concern about political dynasties ruling the country? Why don't they show concern about poverty in Pakistan? Why don't they show concern on deteriorating law and order situation in Pakistan? Why don't they show concern when the army train, support and e...

Dear Muhajir Nation III

O Muhajir people  You are being a target to be divided and you know well what happens when you are divided.  Never forget your history. Never forget what is happening since 1947 till now.  When you came as refugees you were rejected by the local people and asked to go back from where ever you have come from.  In 1971, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman asked for your help for independence, you said no you will support West Pakistan and when West Pakistan lost they deserted you, living your brothers and sisters stateless, which are still stateless in Bangladesh. Similarly, Bengalis who are left in West Pakistan are stateless till date.  There was a reason to create Muhajir Quami Movement (MQM). When this movement became popular, the local feudal lords and landlords didn’t liked it and don’t like it till date.  They have tried to crush Muhajir nation time by time. Never forget military operation in early 1990’s, which was called Operation Clean U...
