The popular social networking site X, which was once known as Twitter, has apparently been subject to a “restriction” inside Pakistan for a whole day, according to information released by NetBlocks, a well-known cybersecurity group.
The implementation of this limitation has had a substantial impact on users nationwide, leading to extended periods of inaccessibility for the platform’s services. The interruptions started as early as Saturday.
Users were having trouble accessing X, as shown by the many complaints they got from Downdetector, a programme that tracks internet outages. Users were seeing error messages stating that the site was unavailable.
The length of this limitation is noteworthy, as it is one of the longest disruptions in a string of nationwide internet outages. This event highlights persistent issues with internet accessibility in Pakistan that have been noted recently on a number of social networking sites and other businesses.
