Pakistan blocks Twitter because of 'offensive material'
http://j.mp/J6Ui4n (BBC)
"Pakistani authorities have blocked access to the social media website
Twitter because of messages they say are offensive to Islam. They
talked of "blasphemous and inflammatory" material although it is not
clear exactly what the tweets said."
