The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) decided to block all pornographic content from the internet October last year. The Internet Service Providers like Wateen and Worldcall verify this news, saying that PTA has given them directives to block sites with explicit content. According to the daily Express Tribune, the PTA website was hacked in October and the hacker left behind a threat (possibly inserted in the server) that the PTA would face severe consequences if porn sites were not immediately blocked. The hacker was apparently perturbed on Pakistan being tagged "Pornistan" by a Fox News report last year which claimed that Pakistan ranked first in the Google porn terms search.
