A Senate panel was informed on Monday by PTA Chairman Major General (retd) Hafeezur Rehman Pasha that the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority has set a deadline of November 30 for VPN registration.
He stated during his appearance before the Senate Standing Committee on Information Technology and Telecommunications that “all unregistered VPNs will be blocked after this date.”
Virtual Private Networks, or VPNs, are widely used all over the world to get around limitations and access content that is restricted. Users in Pakistan frequently utilize virtual private networks (VPNs) to access inaccessible websites such as X.
The PTA previously stated that it has blocked 844,008 immoral websites and more than 100,183 URLs that contained blasphemous content.
