After YouTube, Pak targets more
sites

NEW DELHI: It's been a year since
YouTube was banned in Pakistan last
September. But that's not a stray
case of online censorship in the
strife-torn country.
Activists say that several other
websites such as those highlighting
human rights violation in
Balochistan have also been blocked
in Pakistan . "We have what you can
best describe as 'covert censorship' .
A significant number of websites
covering Balochistan human rights
violations have been blocked. A
website on the genocide of Shias
was blocked," says Sana Saleem of
activist group, Bolo Bhi.
The YouTube block was prompted by
an Islamophobic film, Innocence of
Muslims, which had found its way to
the videosharing website. Authorities
justified the online jamming saying
that the film could cause widespread
violence. But activists point out that
authorities have resorted to online
censorship to stop people from
watching politically inconvenient
videos too.
One of them is a threeyear-old video
of former president Asif Ali Zardari
pausing mid-speech at a public rally
to say "Shut up!" to someone
offcamera that prompted a You-Tube
block back then.
A 2012 Open Net Initiative report
says that website blocking is carried
out by a "Inter-Ministerial
Committee for the Evaluation of
Websites" , though there is no legal
framework to order such jamming.
