- Dive into the heart of a discussion on digital freedom with us in this episode of ‘What Podcast?’ where we welcome our first guest, Usama Khilji, for a deep dive into the issue of online censorship in Pakistan. 🚫💻
In this discussion, we unravel the increase in instances of complete internet shutdowns, the current blackout of X (formerly Twitter) and its profound implications. 📵 What does this mean for freedom of speech and the digital landscape in Pakistan?
We also discuss the darker side of digital policies and the ironic fate of political parties entangled in their own created draconian laws. Plus, the intriguing use of VPNs as a beacon of hope amidst this digital chaos. 🌐✨
But that's not all - we're also examine the potential for unity among political forces, contrasts between Barrister Gohar and Sher Afzal Marwat, and the minister of IT's bold claims on soaring IT exports that he shared using a VPN. 📈🔒
