Good step by the government.

Hahaha. So cheap on the government who snatched mandate by using social media.

Shame on Pakistani government for this behavior

Support Leader and Pakistan. If you can't do this then stop pocking your nose.

Shameful activities by so called journalists jeopardizing national interests

Our journalists should try to keep country interests on top of personal twitter follower counts

Please start from those on the Payroll of PTI.

good step... they are all culprit

Dear Government, the whole world protested against your honourable guests over that murder.

This is a martial law in disguise.

I am PTI supporter, this is very shameful act by the government .

False criticises posted by social media should be punished. The govt must control social media.

What about those paid journalists, politicians and religious leaders who continuously make negative and inciting statements against our army, judges and PTI government? Take similar actions, identify them and punish them according to law - this will deter such people and incidents. (Gharib Awam ki Awaz).

Social media is the power of PTI. Threatening them and silencing them will turn the real power of this party against them. Even PMLN was not doing like this.

Stop criticizing the Government and if you can't do that ask your foreign masters to help and support Pakistan like Saudi Arabia and other friends.

At least be sincere to your homeland.

Is this what they mean by the freedom of the press in Pakistan?

One wonders if MNS had been power, what would have been the reaction of these so-called journalists?

Sad fact is that corruption has seeped into media - journalists openly accuse others - receiving brown paper envelopes - people must know how much money is involved in ensuring a particular campaign for and against any individual or organization.

Damage is already done.

While no harm in posting pics of slain journalist during visit, Govt. must take stern action against elements spreading false malicious propaganda against a country thats dear to Pakistan and has always been at the forefronts in helping us out and supporting us.

They want to see Pakistan ruined like Iraq Syria and Libya. Get hold of them and put them behind bars.

Yes arrest them and put behind bars. And then give big speech on freedom of speech.

Why do all anti national journalists are always from geo new ?

Gov has nothing else to do so start checking who was going againts the gov point of view. Resources well spent

Well done IK Govt keep it up

Imran Khan became the PM through a all out social media propaganda and wants to block it now knowing it’s power. That is a bad step towards dictatorship again.

Pakistan is not Saudi Arabia. We do not need to be afraid of MBS. need to respect Pakistans democratic tradition. Attacking journalists does not reflect well on Imran Khan.

So calling a murderer a murderer is a crime. Dear MBS & IK this is Quaid e Azams Pakistan not Saudis fiefdom.

That's SA internal matter. Pakistan doesn't need to intervene in Saudi internal issues.

So IK deprives us of freedom of speech while the other leaders deprived us of any progress and prosperity die to their loot. I guess at the end of the day, they all are same. I have supported IK but this is crossing the line.

This is a shameful act true patriots of must condem this act.

Say only what is in interest of PTI , listen only to PTI, see only what PTI shows.

@Pak, Agree. The government should be commended for doing the right thing.

PTI regime has become autocratic and totalitarian, like the Crown Prince himself.

Good work

@Adnan, critisizing the government or anybody is a basic right in a democracy.

Complete wastage of time....an effort to control social media.....

I don't agree on this... but I agree on freedom of expression. We are no longer a king and queen country.. Democratic nations do not take orders by kings and queens.. but by the people for the people..

Useless. Either way 80% of these aren't in Pakistan.

So the government decides what the people should think, read and watch, democracy at its best.!!

Some social media and media thinks they are bove the government and state. Very good steps by government.

@Umar, your are not pti supporter otherwise you will not hit state interests.

PTI Govt needs to be careful here and not limit Freedom of Speech.

So whats the difference between dictatorship & democracy here?

The Federal Investigation Agency's cyber crime wing is overstepping.

Unbelievable

Correct decision... apprehend those who work against the interest on country..It is and should be Pakistan first..No matter what.may.come

Slave leaders making others slave.

Good step by PTI Gov

Shameful.

@Jamal, good reply

@Shabbir, NoNo. Start from PPP and PMLN

FIA is absolutely right to investigate this.

@Zak, I never imagined I would say this but I am proud of you.

Here comes the censorship again?

These Pakistanis had no business getting involved into KSA affairs. Don’t we have more than enough our issues in Pakistan that need attention? These people want to tarnish our relationship with KSA and are not loyal to Pakistan’s cause.

Freedom must not be enchained as its in majority of Mideast countries,only yesterday we agreed to follow Malaysia government style?

Many of the names and groups are anti Pakistani

Good move by government!

PTI is showing its real color and face, slowly and surely. No govts in the past had tolerated freedom of speech and expression, how can this one, especially after receiving 'benefits' in billions from outside. Definitely, morals come at much lower level than financial benefits.

@Jamal,

Yes.

Congratulations to the nation for supersedence of thier freedom of speech with the new authoratarian curbs.

No one should be able to claim immunity from facts based criticism. Don't create more holy cows.

Whether educated or ignorant, everyone in Pakistan is aware of the state-sponsored Khashggoi murder. Running campaigns on social media during an investment visit is however, akin to shooting yourself in the foot and a move against Pakistan. We have dwindling foreign reserves. Will all these social media warriors fill them up and feed the poor who are dying to starvation because of it? NO. But they will cry and blame to government for those same deaths despite being the same people who are trying to push foreign investments away by humiliating the messenger!

You don't have to like MBK. I don't either and I condemn his actions, but they are not representative of the investors from his country!

The U.S central intelligence agency did not conclude the Saudi Crown Prince was behind the killing of Khashoggi. They have simply said that such a task would not be performed without his knowledge. however, the killers of Khashoggi, in their rouge operation, have admitted that they did this mission without the knowledge or permission of the government.

Today, cybercrime is defined as a systematic cyber-attack on individuals, organizations, and governments- mainly to weaken them and brainwash people who are involved with the attacked. Such systematic cyber-attacks are scientifically designed to control the minds of the people and direct them towards the wanted opinion,

@Zeeshdxb, It is not only about personal follower count. it is about serving agendas, whether personal or shared agendas. Some journalists have no problem selling their souls to serve an agenda as long as they are treated well by their recruiters.

@Najma Hisham, Systematic cyber-attacks are identified as a grouped attacks which have similar tone, theme, and goal. Those attacks are identified by having certain features of rising and falling times. That is how some people are accused of carrying cyber-attacks. it is nothing about freedom of speech.
