The new law would also suppress the human rights of Pakistanis to freedom of speech and expression, plunging Pakistan deeper into areas of state censorship, matching the obvious existing oppression in many countries, including China, North Korea and Russia, which recently banned memes ridiculing public figures - especially those of President Vladimir Putin. The new law replaces the order of the Pakistan Electronic Crimes in November 09 that at the time, was not a priority for the government.
Pakistan, which already Internet censors by strict blasphemy application, anti-pornography and anti-government rules the country has not yet confirmed who will oversee the new law, and how it will be implemented.
preventing Pakistan Electronic Crimes Act 2015 bill provides new regulations will not only criminalize users for the actions of every day that many take for granted, but instead also all users Internet Pakistan digital mass surveillance:
- There will be a criminal offense to possess and manage online accounts on social media platforms on behalf of another person

- under the prevention of Pakistan Act on electronic crimes Bill 2015, ISPs will be forced to spy on their customers and keep all metadata from the user for a year
Pakistan is certainly no stranger to censorship. In September 2012 Pakistan banned YouTube after the social media channel failed to remove the trailer "Innocence of Muslims", which caused violent protests in Pakistan and the Islamic world. While the YouTube ban was supposed to be temporary, the block remains on Youtube three years.
threaten users with imprisonment and fines of up to $ 9,800 (the average annual wage in Pakistan is about $ 3060 PPP) is a strategic move for manipulative control users to comply this draconian law.
