Pakistan Ranks 3rd for Most Internet Shutdowns in 2023
In the first half of 2023, Pakistan has some of the worst internet censorship, according to a new research from VPN and cyber security service Surfshark.
In its half-year analysis, Pakistan was responsible for three of the 42 new international internet restrictions. The Internet Shutdown Tracker said that these limitations were put into place after the nation’s former prime minister, Imran Khan, was taken into custody on May 9.
Social media sites like Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube were less popular in Pakistan during this time. For several days after the arrest, there were several instances of brief cellphone network outages all around the nation.

In the first half of 2023, Pakistan had the third-highest number of internet restrictions, behind Iran and India, according to the Surfshark research. The majority of these internet outages have continued to occur in Asia.
With 14 instances, Iran had the most incidents of internet outages during this time. These all occurred in Zahedan on Friday during demonstrations brought on by the massacre in Zahedan.
Iran was closely followed by India, which had nine confirmed occurrences, the majority of which took place during various protest activities.
Intriguingly, the report mentions two further incidents of internet blackouts in “Jammu and Kashmir,” which the Indian government ostensibly ordered. The total number of internet outages in India over this six-month period rises to 11 if these are counted as well.
