Facebook could be banned in Pakistan any time now, After they have not taken down the controversial Facebook Fan Page ‘ Everybody Draw Muhammad Day (20th may) ‘. Ministry of Technology and Telecom has issued the directive to PTA (Pakistan Telecommunication Authority) to ban the access to Facebook reported by ProPakistani.
And then there’s this update:
[ Update: 19-May-2010 4:00 pm PST ]
Alright I am using PTCL DSL and I can confirm that access to entire facebook is blocked. Even the widgets we have on this blog are not showing any facebook share link.
That might just put a kink in the plans of the Anti-Draw-Mo-Day crowd who was hoping to DDOS anyone who posted images of Mo.
Update 2: Looks like YouTube is banned too.
