KARACHI: Amidst reports of Sindh government banning instant messaging clients Skype, Viber and other communication networks for 3 months, people took to Twitter to vent out their disbelief and some, their approval.

While the decision seems to have been taken for security reasons, the Twitteratis questioned if the ban on communication services was taking things a bit too far.
