    I love when a God type peeks in from heaven, from time to time, performs a technology review with his main human peeps, and together they conclude a VPN is probably bad for the community / personal development / a deeper connection with said God etc.

    So cool. Praise be heavenly technical reviews.

    The title is (kind of) clickbait. It’s actually just been ruled that using a VPN to access blocked content is against Sharia law. But fuck if that headline isn’t funny

      Pedophilia is pretty common in organized religion, so probably not much. It’s in both the Quran and Bible. Idk about the Hindu faith, but Gandhi used to sleep nude with young girls, including family members, to test whether they got him hard or not, and he’s still adored by millions.

          Of course. Otherwise you’re racist, islamophobic, transphobic (you know, because of the trans-fat, i guess), republican, democrat, fascist, communist, ignorant, insensitive, probably a nazzi, certainly satanic, a lawyer, a doctor and a politician. Add to the list a conspiracy theorist and a nerd. But if you tolerate it, well, you’re tolerant, a great human being and an all-together great human being.

          Fuck me, I need the to get the fuck off of this piece of shit planet.

            There is still some common sense left in the world although it is not acceptable to have these opinions in polite company if you want to keep your job

            So most people either accept it or just STFU. System is working as intended.

            BUT HEY LET ME SCAN YOUR PHONE FOR CSAM BOY FOR THE CHILDREN 🤡

          Oh, well if you don’t, people say you’re a bad person. Despite religion being the driving force behind most of the evil that’s plagued the human race, we give it a free pass because most people are too scared to live life without the promise of something coming after.

    Summary by brave leo :

    • Pakistan’s top advisory body on religious affairs, the Council of Islamic Ideology, declared that using virtual private networks (VPNs) to access blocked content is against Islamic law.
    • The government is pushing users to register VPNs with the state’s media regulator, ostensibly to enhance cybersecurity and fight terrorism, but critics say it increases online surveillance and curbs freedom of expression.
    • The government claims VPNs are being used to access “immoral and porn websites” and to facilitate “violent activities and financial transactions” by terrorists.
    • Opponents of the restrictions say the increased push to control online activities is aimed at curbing criticism of the Pakistani military.
    • The government has announced a “streamlined” VPN registration process, but experts say it allows authorities to track online activities and limit privacy.
    • The nationwide internet regulation tool acquired from China increases the Pakistani state’s capability to monitor communications, raising concerns about data breaches and online security.
