After blocking Facebook and Youtube, Pakistani authorities on Friday further widened the crackdown on websites with blasphemous contents by restricting access to popular social networking website Twitter.

Pakistani users were unable to log into Twitter after internet service providers blocked access to the site.
When users tried to log into site, there browsers displayed a message that said "this site is restricted."

Over the past two days, Pakistan telecommunication authority has blocked websites like Facebook and Youtube, citing "sacrilegious contents" on the websites as the reason for the action.

the ban is now in effect until May 31, when the Pakistani court will conduct a hearing to determine whether to make it permanent.Over 450 URLs have been blocked so far by the authorities.

The controversy began with the Facebook feature called "Everybody Draw Muhammad Day". Depictions of the Prophet are forbidden in Islam.The page contains drawings and caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad and characters from other religions, including Hinduism and Christianity.

The video hosting site has been blocked by countries before - by Turkey for videos that insulted the country's founding father Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, by Thailand for rude content about the king, and in Morocco for hosting content about Western Saharan independence.

YouTube was also blocked in the Muslim country in 2007 for about a year for what Pakistan called un-Islamic videos.he publications of cartoons of the prophet in Danish newspapers in 2005 sparked deadly protests in Muslim countries. About 50 people were killed during violent protests in Muslim countries in 2006 over the cartoons, five of them in Pakistan.

SO...AFTER GETTING INORMED ABOUT WHOLE ISSUE..WHAT U UYS THINK? IS IT JUSTIFIABLE TO BLOCK INTERNET SITES BECOZ OF SENSITIVE RELIGIOUS ISSUES?
