Blocking of YouTube

Blocking of YouTube has caused huge damage to the students who need to hear educational lectures on the site. Our policymakers are talking about digital Bangladesh. Is this a step for digital Bangladesh? A section of the government might have thought that the blocking of YouTube would go in its favour because no one would get any scope to post and re-post bitter TV talk shows on YouTube and so anti-government statements will not be disseminated. But we cannot suffer for a cheap movie made in the USA. In fact, many non-Muslims already rejected that movie. Unfortunately, our IT community failed to pressurise the government to open YouTube.
