Pakistan Bans YouTube

Tuesday, February 26, 2008

The government of Pakistan has blocked access to YouTube over anti-Islamic clips posted on the video-sharing site. What do you think?

Chris Ricciardi,
Documentation Clerk
"It's a shame that now the only place for Pakistan's amateur filmmakers to post their work is CNN."

Janelle Ashland,
Purification Assistant
"Hopefully there will be a day in which little Pakistani boys and girls can come together with their Western counterparts and watch a video of a horny donkey trying to hump a guy taking a leak in its pasture."

Blake Barrie,
Asbestos Abatement Worker
"I'd expect this kind of fear-mongering behavior from Russia, China, America, France, England, Iran, Japan, Spain, Germany, Venezuela, and Israel. But not Pakistan."
