Don’t Block the Blog – 2



Just a progress report on the Censorship Campaign organized by our own administration. I am embarrassed to point out that the blockage still exists, it now can be understood as NOT an innocent mistake but more as an organized ploy to deliberately block all blogs. No progress has been made to alleviate this blockage and neither has the government issued any statement for the same, they expect to let the critics like us shout and we will soon die off after having not achieved anything.

I am proud the with the help of my Team at Help-Pakistan.com namely Omer Alvie, we have launched into a massive campaign with the slogan Don’t Block the Blog and have an online protest to the local and international media, side-by-side a large group of energetic individuals have also joined together calling themselves Action Group Against Banning Blogspot in Pakistan a mailing list which is writing some strong letters and issuing press releases to all media outlets around the globe. We all know that the Government of Pakistan usually gives a damn to protesting local citizens but instead will most likely react if the international agencies coming knocking down hard on the door asking questions.

Check out the updated list of articles appearing in newspapers and websites around the world at Don’t Block the Blog link on Help-Pakistan.com

Come fight shoulder to shoulder with us (even if you are not directly affected) it every humans fundamental right to Free Speech

Comment Policy: Moderating comments is a very difficult thing to enforce and we do not like to stop anyone's opinion no matter how bizarre it might be. The general trend of this blog has been that we never censor comments based on political or ideological point of view. But to bring a little sanity in the debate we strongly frown upon comments that are abusive, off-topic, use foul language, resort to racial attacks, use caps-locks, habitual flamers are shown the door especially those commenters who resort to ad hominem attacks are definitely deleted when caught. Simply said, if you can carry a civilized discussion then the floor is open to your hearts desire. But, we still reserve the right to delete any comment that we deem inappropriate without reason
