The head of communications in Tajikistan has decided to block access to the popular country western social media site Facebook. According to the head of the communication he received too many requests residents to close the site, not allowing access to the site from within the country. Due to complaints that the chief of communications of Tajik residents, he would have a word with the founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg.
In previous reports Beg Zukhurov denied all allegations that it had blocked access to the popular website of social media. In fact, he was saying he was able to connect to Facebook without any problem, and that perhaps ISPs in the region were experiencing difficulties with the site. However, although most residents of Tajik people have turned their attention to their ISPs for blocking, November 27, Zukhurov admitted he was responsible for giving the order to close the site.
The excuse to close the site down, because public figures had discussed site closure downwardly to an elongated frame time. He received a flood of calls to other public figures who were outraged that the site was accessible by residents of the country. Therefore, instead of entering into discussions that would the site to remain in place, Zukhurov decided the best thing to do was to block the site entirely.
Reporters Without Borders, otherwise known as RSF name composed a report in August In this report, Zukhurov had expressed deep concerns it when monitors Internet creation that would report to him, instead of reporting to the courts of the country. Zukhurov giving the power to block websites and other publications, without asking the opinion of the courts, this does not give the courts the opportunity to decide if the blocking was justified or not.
Zukhurov estimates that Facebook users are paid to write reviews that complain about their leaders. He believes that when these users complain about their leadership on their walls, they should discuss other topics that are most important for the country. In some parts of Tajikistan, there are no roads to drive on, and an extremely rare water supply. Zukhurov believes that residents should express their concerns on these issues, instead of writing about other topics that are outside the approved topics he feels residents should be able to discuss.
Many residents of Tajikistan dial the Facebook messages that are facing money problems. Zukhurov says it has been said that users who post on other issues outside of the issues they should discuss the social media website are paid anywhere between $ 5,000 to $ 10,000 to their posts.
The residingin Tajikistan residents can access the site by using proxy servers. Zukhurov tried to block Facebook since March and was finally able to successfully place a permanent block on the social media website. In March when asked to Zukhurov the blockade, he said that the site has been blocked for the prophylactic maintenance.
There are more than 40,000 people in Tajikistan who are registered users of Facebook. This network is one of the last remaining places in the country that are free to open discussions and free for residents to discuss what they really feel about what is happening in their country. Many will turn to now VPNs to circumvent the new law.
