This group blog is aggregating supposedly insightful comments on Pakistani Internet and IT issues. Authors are human (so do expect errors) and are mostly based in Pakistan (which means that the comments and reporting is done from the 'battle-field'). It is only incidental that a good number of contributors to this blog also happened to contribute for the magazine SPIDER which brought them together in the first place.

So these ISPs I know for sure are blocking access:
- Cybernet
- Supernet
- World Call
- WOL DSL
- Multinet
I need to know whether ISPs routing via PIE are blocking access or those on IPL have been instructed to do the same. Perhaps, Fascom?
Just checked with a friend. Fascom has blocked it too.
Its blocked at my end too - I'm using a cable net service, which in turn gets its connection from Netsol as far as I know.
Gah. What on earth will they achieve by blocking it?
South Asia Tribune has been blocked because its story about the enormous influence of Ammaji, the Raj Mata, has upset Pakistan's praetorian master. SAT correctly predicted Dr. Masoom Abidi's elevation as head of the academy (Pakistan University of Media Studies) being established by Islamabad's Ministry of Mind Control.
Thanks Spider for starting this Blog. I am sure once the authorities come to know of it, they would try to block this as well, or try to get even with Spider. But I thank you for your courage. We will all be together to fight whatever these blockers want to impose on us.

Thanks for visiting our blog Shaheen. The government has NO clue about blogs [to date]. I hope we're NEVER picked on by PIE!
