Due to the slowness of the Internet in Pakistan, the users are facing a lot of problems, why is it running so slow? And when will it return to its normal speed?
These questions have been answered.
According to the report, social media users in Pakistan are facing slow internet due to the trial run of a firewall, a social media control system.
According to the report, the relevant authorities say that the internet traffic and speed will return to normal after the trial is over.
More than 30 billion rupees have been allocated in the development budget for the acquisition and installation of this filtering system.
According to the report, work on the project has been going on since January this year, including procurement and installation of the system.
According to the official concerned, this system has now been installed. However, some time is required to give control of this system to the concerned authorities.
According to the report, when the official was asked if the firewall would affect the business connected to the Internet? So he said that there may be a risk but the target of this system is not business or commercial activities.
The purpose of the firewall system is to control social media influencers who are involved in spreading fake news in the eyes of the government, the purpose of the firewall is to hide or block the content of these influencers.
It may be noted that 2 weeks ago, an advertisement by the PTA tried to give the impression that the work was going to be done and the paperwork was being initiated now.
According to the report, the PTA spokesperson says that this is a separate firewall.
What is surprising is how much funds have been allocated for more than one filter as a budget of more than 30 billion rupees was allocated for the purchase of the above equipment.
