Throwback to the time when Pakistan shut down YouTube worldwide!

[pysaqib]

I bet most of us remember when YouTube was banned after a blasphemous video on the platform. However, it turns out that when Pakistan was trying to ban the website, one of the ISPs misconfigured some networking protocols, ultimately shutting down YouTube worldwide. Chad move (whoever you are)!

Source: Pakistan once took down YouTube worldwide. Here's how.

Pakistan caged itself from outside world

Alternative sites were created to get cash from situation from some people in govt and media

YouTube is biggest source of income for new generation

And idiot will do such thing again

I have been using computers and internet for as long as I remember, getting my C64, Amstard CPC, Apple IIC, first XT computer a dial-up modem of I don't know it was something like 3.6k, learned programming long long time ago and hacking from one of the genius programmer/hacker Carolyn Meinel. I keep myself updated with technology and do interesting stuff for fun like hacking RFID chips used in Pakistan may be motorways and more interesting stuff which must not be named.

But internet continues to amaze me it seems the more technology is developing more insecure it is getting, I am gathering some data to write something up on the same topic but I have only 24 hours a day, may be once I am through with my yearly meeting next week I ll post something. This was interesting I would like to explore more on this, I will send my queries but if you come up with details not the superficial reporter stuff please do share and I'll do the same if I could get my hands on it.

No sirs, please I get plenty of them every day more than I like actually.

My perma residence is in Pindi Cantt while my Job is in Lahore overseeing a leading financial institution business of Punjab.

Don't want to move to Karachi and not interested in any National position or promotion. I am however, available on weekends in Pindi/Islo.

Everyone here needs to watch “the Social dilemma” documentary on Netflix.
Social media in including YouTube and google is not a thing to take lightly.
