Mon, 03 Apr 2006 02:31:05 +0000 http://www.ipatrix.com/2006/03/31/blocking-information/#comment-6202 [...] Levity on Monday mornings more than makes up for missed Sunday Levity posts. Since we are on the subject of soft-power, Patrix describes an incident that illustrates to what absurd lengths the Pakistani government can go in its bid to prevent Indian ‘influence’. It seems PTV, Pakistan’s state-run television channel muted the Indian national anthem whenever it was played at the victory ceremonies at the Commonwealth Games 2006. I am not sure if that is true but if it is, I can only pity the poor Pakistanis who kept away from the ‘evil’ of Indian athletes winning the gold or from hearing our national anthem. Wait, there is more. They blanked out the entire section of the Ceremony when India presented their welcome performance for the next Commonwealth Games (2010) in Delhi. How paranoid can you get especially in this age of ubiquitous information via the Internet.

Are you sure about the blogger bit? I think Amit Verma mentioned on his blog that Pakistanis had never blocked Blogger. This is ridiculous!
