Youtube Restrictions from Pakistan
A “blasphemous” video clip that provoked action from the Pakistan Telecom Authority resulted in Youtube being taken down globally for about an hour and a half over the weekend. It was down for myself in Dublin at that time, and I found updates from BBC confirming that there was a problem. The episode is thankfully now over, but it’s a fairly instructive example of the problems the internet poses for censors.
