Post Pakistan blocks youtube, screws up, kills itself
heh....in the "too retarded to live" category, Pakistan tried to quietly block youtube and screwed up. It basically advertised a global internet route that took people going to youtube's ip block to some other website, rerouting all youtube traffic to some pakistani web page and effectively knocking itself off the internet.

absolutely hilarious. Pakistan should be spanked, their ISP should be spanked, and the ISP that serves that ISP should be spanked.

It's always nice to see censorship backfire.
