Looks like a few countries are getting a bit offended from some of the recent videos on Youtube, because it wasn’t available for about 2 hours Sunday. This comes after Pakistani authorities ordered all ISP’s to block the site. That meant Youtube was was not accessible around the world to many.

Pakistani authorities say they found videos to be offensive and that they should be removed rather than cause unrest in Pakistan. In particular officials want a Movie trailer removed whose author is Geert Wilders. They have made no decision other than to continue to block Youtube in Pakistan, so I guess we will see how long that lasts.

This isn’t the first time a country has done this and I am sure that it won’t be the last. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a video is worth a million.
