Wikipedia Ordered to Remove Blasphemous Content in Pakistan

Blasphemous content ordered to be removed within 48 hours
Pakistan regulator �degrades� services for non-compliance

Wikipedia will be blocked in Muslim-majority Pakistan if the platform
fails to take down content deemed to be sacrilegious within 48 hours, the
country�s telecoms regulator said. Pakistan Telecommunication Authority
(PTA) on Wednesday said it had �degraded� Wikipedia services on
non-compliance of an earlier direction to remove �unlawful� content,
according to a statement. While it did not elaborate on measures taken,
some suggested the site had been throttled. If the platform fails to
remove the content in question, Wikipedia �will be blocked within
Pakistan,� the authority said, without specifying the information it
wanted removed. �There is slowness and definitely it�ll impact especially
those who use Wikipedia for education and information purposes,�
Wahaj-us-Siraj, Chief Executive Officer of internet provider Nayatel, said
in a text message. Blasphemy is a sensitive issue in Pakistan, whose laws
condone capital punishment for anyone convicted of affronting Islam.
Authorities have in the past taken action against various social media
platforms for broadcasting content deemed blasphemous. Pakistan Tops List
of Nations at Risk of Violence, Report Says
