PTA banned pornographic websites in Pakistan
Monday, January 23rd, 2012 5:02:58 by Ahmed Babar
PTA has finally restricted access of porn sites in Pakistan. A bold step taken by Pakistan Telecommunications Authority as pornographic websites was only adding to the annoyance in the society.
PTA has provided a list to the ISP’s in Pakistan to block the frequently accessed adult sites. It is believed that more web pages will be added to the initial banned list of 1,000 websites and as many as 170,000 websites may be banned in the near future.
The currently blocked websites redirects the users to a new page with the following error message, “This page is blocked due to restrictions enforced by the Pakistan Telecommunications Authority (PTA)”.
The credit goes to the mystery man who used ‘Zombie_Ksa’ as an alias to hack the Supreme Courts website earlier in September. “Supreme Court of Pakistan is in untalented hands” was the message displayed on the official website of most prestigious department
of our country.
Mr. Zombie also addressed the Chief Justice of Pakistan, Mr, Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry, “I am here to request you to go out and help the poor, needy and hungry. They don’t have money to eat one-time meal, they don’t have clothes to wear, and they don’t
have accommodation … sitting in your royal chair won’t make any changes to our Pakistan”.
He also left a message for the Pakistan Telecommunications Authority (PTA) to block the pornographic websites in the country..
No serious actions were taken by the authorities to cater the valid suggestions made by Zombie. The genius decided to teach the authorities one more lesson as he hacked PTA’s website on October 10th, 2011.
He left a rebellious message for the PTA Chairman, Dr. Muhammad Yaseen, “Ask yourself why Pakistan Telecommunication Authority is victim of ZombiE_KsA ? Baby I’m here to tell this **** world that we are Pakistan, not Pornistan…and
Sir I need your help. Since you have powerful balls and I request you to take action to ban porn sites in Pakistan. Read it again I request you to BAN Pornographic sites in Pakistan”.
Sources believe that FIA has identified Zombie_Ksa as Jawad Ehsan also known as Hamza, the founder of a Pakistani group of hackers, PAKBUGS.
It is important to discuss the importance behind the implication of the ban as it is more than just a moral requirement.
According to a controversial report by Fox News back in 2010, it was stated that Pakistan is one of the top ranked country in terms of porn-related search requests. Some believe the reports to be true while some grade it as just propaganda by the western
media.
Whatever the reason may be, banning the porn sites is a brave step taken by the officials and it will be a real ‘slap in the face’ for everyone damaging the image of Pakistan.

A great step taken by the telecommunication authority. good coverage by the writer
“I am here to request you to go out and help the poor, needy and hungry. They don’t have money to eat one-time meal, they don’t have clothes to wear, and they don’t have accommodation … sitting in your royal chair won’t make any changes to our Pakistan” I hope this also gets some attention….the ban on porn sites is a good initiative, but it was an easier task compared to the above mentioned quote….and im happy that some writer has brought up the real issue into picture as well rather than only showering praise on the authorities for banning porn..
Pakistan should also BAN Google and Facebook, just like China.
If an internet company wishes to do business in Pakistan, then they should set up servers IN Pakistan and have staff IN Pakistan.
Pakistan also needs to BAN Blackberry.
OK, Fox News is not a news Channel, They are the biggest Liers in this world. They run a PROPAGANDA Channel not a news channel.
Good Job Mr ZombiE & u Mr Ahmad
Good Job Mr ZombiE & u Mr Ahmad

and thanx Mr. Zombie 🙂
you’re wrongs lots of website are on and don’t when pta take this action but nothing will happen
nothing will happen with this if you’re porn addicted you’ll watch it, under whatever restrictions. So, time is to change yourself.
I suggest all the readers of this article.that they should use K9 software for content filtering.that is much stronger than any other. i have personally suggest and installed on my friends and family’s many personal computers. it has a stronger filter because of its online control panel. and a huge variety of options it has in its c-panel.The google save search option is there.
just give your email address and get the serial free via email. here’s the link.

The other thing is ISP’s do anything they want. but i think because of filtering they may loose their most of the customers as well..so why any body wants to block that thing on which their business depends?
on the other hand if they want to block all these contents they have their own security servers which can handle these kinds of sticky situations like ISA etc..
one more thing even if they want to purchase a third party software regarding content filtering they may pay a little amount comparing to their huge revenues. what the heck if a billion dollars company buy a thousand dollars software for the betterment of their customers.?
but again..like attitude business matters..!!
Still there are so many websites have the access to be used. I think PTA should take complete measurements to block all those. Google Trends still showing Pakistan at the top on searching sex, porn.
