Update: The offending video has since been removed and Youtube has now been unblocked. Good work all around.
Youtube.com is inaccessible from several ISPs here in Pakistan and there are reports that all ISPs have been directed by the Pakistani government to block www.youtube.com for containing blasphemous web content.
This ban has reportedly been placed because of this video – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3s8jtvvg00 – and no matter what you want to say about censorship and the freedom of speech, this video is downright abusive and hateful. I managed to load the video through Anonymizer, but stopped after the first few seconds – not out of any respect for Islam, but because the video goes far beyond what you would consider satire and is essentially hate speech.
