The last laugh?

Just got this from a friend in Isloo:

Dear Internet Users

Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (www.pta.gov.pk)has directed all ISPs of the country to block access
to www.youtube.com web site for containing blasphemous web content/movies.

The site would remain blocked till further orders from PTA. Meanwhile, Internet users can write to
youtube.com to remove the objectionable web content/movies because this removal would enable
the authorities to order un-blocking of this web site.

Best Regards

Manager

draft letter to YouTube:

Dear YouTube People

Some people have uploaded blasphemous video segments on your service. My country has therefore blocked YouTube. As a result, I am completely unable to access vitally important educational videos, such as that of Japanese singing stars in sexually compromising positions with their boyfriends, which are not forbidden to access in my country, although the previous government did try to make this a seditious crime.

Please remove all blasphemous videos from your site, and inform my country's regulatory authority duly, so that my emotional life can be restored to balance.

Thanks so very much.
