Ban porn or else: Hacker penetrates PTA site
The PTA website faced a database error for some time, and while its front page was not defaced, a page listing the demands of Zombie_KSA -- the hacker who had earlier defaced the Supreme Court website -- was inserted into the site's server.
Zombie_KSA left a defiant message on the PTA site for the Chairman Dr Muhammad Yaseen, stating:
“Ask yourself why Pakistan Telecommunication Authority is victim of ZombiE_KsA ? Baby I’m here to tell this **** world that we are Pakistan, not Pornistan...and Sir I need your help. Since you have powerful balls and I request you to take action to ban porn sites in Pakistan. Read it again I request you to BAN Pornographic sites in Pakistan.”
The hacker warned PTA to take measures to block online pornographic content in Pakistan within a week or face further consequences.
Pakistan's porn consumption
A 2010 Fox News report cited Pakistan as ranking number one in the world for porn-related search terms. The article dubbed the country as ‘Pornistan’ based on Google Trends and Insights, that identified large amounts of local users searching terms connected to sex.
According to most recent traffic rankings by analytics website Alexa, there are over a dozen pornographic websites in the top 100 websites visited by Pakistanis.

Hacking is a crime no matter how noble the cause. The same hackers can ruin online business.
Will PTI block it? (Sarcastic)
well done PTA
keep it up...
Even if they do ban all the sites.. They cant monitor p2p technology , which is basically used as the main tool for sharing anything across the web.
dear all, i think this is a good for pakistani people,s and all muslims .because we r wasting our time health wealth and every thing if we spend that time for searching and learning our religion and searching quran fact,s that 2day western scientist,s prove the truth.
Pakistan should ban the entire Internet, as it is an evil ZionistCIA/RAW tool to corrupt the hearts of the pure (yes, this is sarcasm).
Our all weather friend China is an expert in banning or blocking websites which make their people more intelligent. We can import their know-how to block sites and keep only sites adhering to Islamic teachings of 6th century.
@aslam: How does it prevent rape??? it will promote rape coz once u watch it i'm sure u will have desires to try all those things out with someone.
@Asim Malik: its a free society, it is upto a person to show individual responsibility, how many things can you ban? what if someone is a great artist and starts drawing naked women? You cant ban things to improve people.
People have to make their own judgements, in America there is freedom to go to a mosque or go to a bar, person has to make their own choice.
When you ban or block something, it just becomes more popular.
Human nature.
the way they hack the site it was a slap . . .
I thought teens wouldn't mind pron.@Ali Z.:
Oh noes! somebody think of the innocent children! Shelter them from the world! We do not want to educate our kids! /sarcasm
I am vehemently against internet censorship. If concerned parents want to ban it then there are plenty of software available which can filter content on the computer. The thing about country level censorship is that you can forget about criticizing the politicians, military and other powers that be as censorship provides an easy tool to silence opposition. Think about what the Tunisian and Egyptian leaders did first when protests started: they restricted access to the internet. Or how in China you cannot search anything about the Tianamen Square massacre, and your mails and web surfing habits are strictly monitored, and your opinions censored, sometimes worse. Think about it. Online censorship is and will be a hallmark of despotic regimes.
If the hacker cares about Pakistan he should ban the terr__r organization websites before anything else...since that is the disease that seems to be killing the nation :P
Hahahahaha powerful balls!!!! That was gold!!
Noooooooooo,
I would die if this happens.
Whether its hacked or not, It need to be appreciated. There are more amateur who fall victims to these kind of site or at least we need to go against those evils which are deemed evils in most of our super model America!.And for your information i can assure/guarantee that America wont mind us banning these sites or wont strafe us from drones...so do it PTA
hmmm good to know but pakistanis doesnt have such abilty to block this sites.pakiostan need a software for that which is cost for billions.its impossible sir if u dont mind thank u
Hackers gone Taliban
What so ever it is PTA you should ban the bad stuff.
Dude....you are too good with what you are doing If you can't find the right way ...no probs, the way you are doing comes out to be the best in nuts
Thumbs up! Yes, you are the man. :)
Lolz this is NOT hacking, the group has simply confused the regional DNS provider into redirecting all traffic meant for PTA to a website that was set up specifically for this purpose, as soon as the DNS refreshed its cache all traffic to PTA would have been re-routed to the original website.... IN Layman terms what i just said means that the site wasn't really hacked but everyone was lead to believe it was..... real amateur stuff. probably some teen with too much time on his hands.
What a noble hacker.
