“Progressive states shouldn’t need to resort to bans!!"

Pakistan celebrities have taken to social media to voice their opinion against the impending YouTube ban in Pakistan.

On Wednesday, 22 July 2020, the Supreme Court of Pakistan hinted at shutting down the site in the nation because of “objectionable content” being shared on the site.

The popular video-sharing site came under fire after suspect Shaukat Ali was involved in a sectarian crime case.

Justice Qazi Muhammad Amin and Justice Mushir Alam claimed that YouTube users were wrongfully targeting their families after particular court rulings.

It was also stated that the public was provoked against the judiciary due to inappropriate content.

Now Pakistani celebrities have shared their concerns online.

Pakistani actress Zara Noor Abbas said:

“#YouTubeban There is a massive industry of content creators, digital makers and entertainers in Pakistan that survive on YouTube.

“Filter content would be a great idea but Banning YouTube will only create more idleness and negativity amongst the professionals and the public.”

Renowned actress Mehwish Hayat highlighted that as a progressive country, Pakistan should not ban the site. She tweeted:

“Really? Banning YouTube?? What next – Twitter, insta, FB, Netflix or even WhatsApp?

“Freedom of speech is the basic tenet of any society. In Pakistan, social media provides checks & balances that mainstream doesn’t.

“Progressive states shouldn’t need to resort to bans!! #YouTubeban.”

Pakistani rapper Ahmed Ali Bhatt expressed his frustration over the ban. He wrote:

“#PTA Ban the Internet. What you don’t understand or control, you ban it anyway.

“There are so many people who earn a decent living from social media, actors included.

“Instead of a ban you should get better security measures in place. Its not fair to block an industry because of some few bad apples.”

Syeda Tuba Aamir stated that the YouTube ban would not resolve the issue. She tweeted:

“I’m against banning apps/websites. This is not the solution as every social media web has its down side, even on twitter ppl abuse!

“We need better cyber laws to restrict objectionable content & counter bullying. Banning apps will never let us grow in the digital world. #YouTubeban.”

She further added:

“Countries ban apps cause of geopolitical/security reasons but we are banning apps/sites because of ‘bad influence’ on youngsters. Seriously?

“Urge parents & everyone to check what their kids/ownself is typing & fix the influence. Govt only needs to make & implement cyberlaws #youtubeban.”
