Pakistan has always does something unusual !! donno how the people over there are reacting to this !!!
Twitter, Facebook Youtube or Myspace is a good way to connect either business or socially. I am not from Pakinstan but can understand why the country wants to protect it’s belief. Thing is you cannot stop other people’s freedom of speech and you will get the discrimination from people. They’re ignorant!
Facebook allows you to connect via location mainly so it should not be a huge problem. Twitter is not very good on local or regional connections, so not a problem except you will find a lot of profanity mainly from US users. Myspace I have never had a problem – I stick to the forums and you only ever have to accept a friend request if you want to. Youtube – I love watching other countries documentaries; it’s educational. I admit that again you will find profanity. All of that I ignore and enjoy the videos.
It’s down to the individual, so allow them to decide.
