ну вот статейка из CNN:
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (CNN) -- Conflicting reports emerged out of Pakistan on Tuesday over the duration of a Pakistani government block on the video-sharing Web site YouTube for showing a "highly blasphemous Dutch" video.
Protests burn a Danish flag in Karachi over the publication of drawings depicting the Prophet Mohammed.
The video, which the Pakistani Telecommunications Authority described as "highly provocative" and "anti-Quranic," featured Dutch politician Geert Wilders and had "the potential to cause more unrest and possible loss of life and property across the country," PTA said in a statement on its Web site.
"PTA believes that the said footage absolutely stands against the values of religious tolerance and peaceful co-existence arousing deep anguish and distress across the Muslim world."
Wilders, a far-right Dutch lawmaker, announced last month that he would release an anti-Islam film. Both the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the FBI have expressed concern that the film would spark global protests and riots.
The Pakistan government is asking YouTube to remove the "objectionable content," said Nabiha Mehmood, a spokeswoman for the PTA.
She said the government would reinstate access to the video-sharing site if YouTube complied with the request. But YouTube, in a statement, only referred to access problems for about two hours on Sunday.
YouTube's statement did not address the Pakistani government blocking access to its site. It said that an issue related to its site in Pakistan affected access to YouTube for users around the globe for about two hours on Sunday.
"Traffic to YouTube was routed according to erroneous Internet protocols, and many users around the world could not access our site," the statement said.
YouTube added: "We have determined that the source of these events was a network in Pakistan. We are investigating and working with others in the Internet community to prevent this from happening again."
The government said it decided to block the video after senior representatives from several ministries of the Pakistani government met, according to a statement on the PTA Web site.
Soon after the meeting, the authority sent a letter to Internet service providers Friday evening ordering them to prevent people in Pakistan from visiting YouTube, Mehmood said.
The 3-year-old video-sharing Web site has exploded in popularity by letting ordinary people post their own videos online and watch videos that others have posted. The Web site's growth also has spawned efforts around the world to regulate it.
Authorities in Brazil, China, Iran, Morocco, Myanmar, Syria and Thailand have blocked access to YouTube in the last few years, according to Reporters Without Borders, a press advocacy organization.
The countries acted after concluding that YouTube videos were subversive (China), immoral (Iran), embarrassing to well-known figures (Brazil) or critical of a country's king (Thailand), the group said.
Governments also have sought to regulate user-supplied Internet content to stymie allegations that they abuse human rights, the group said.
A few months ago, YouTube, responding to complaints, took down videos posted by an award-winning Egyptian human rights advocate that showed what he described as police abuse. About five months later, after media reports, YouTube restored his account and let him continue posting videos.
The decision in Pakistan received mixed reactions.
"Some people are quite upset and screaming. They say they have been using YouTube regularly," said Wahal us Siraj, one of the founders of the Internet Service Providers Association of Pakistan, and chief executive officer of Micronet Broadband. "There are others who say that YouTube is full of videos... that are damaging to the character of children."
Roughly 3 million to 5 million of Pakistan's 165 million people have Internet access, according to Siraj's association.
YouTube is a subsidiary of Google Inc., which bought the site in 2006 for nearly $1.7
Короче, порадовало заявление Пакистана. "А вот пока видео не удалите, не будет вам доступа к you tube." Типа: авотхуй вам всем, нам не нравится!
Мне лично тоже не нравится заложником у Пакистана быть по какой-то ни было причине и я - не один.
Порадовал ответ You tube : доступ закрыли? Какой-такой доступ? Авотхуйвам - на 2 часа - да было, а дальше - получайте фигуру из 3-х пальцев! Что радует. Надеюсь, урок пошел впрок и такого впредь больше не повторится. Блокируй в своей стране и сиди помалкивай, но ведь нееет, надо ведь всему миру указать, и не просто указать, а еще и в заложники взять и ...
Короче - сами поняли.
