Pakistan's Council of Islamic Ideology has announced that the use of virtual private networks (VPNs) goes against Islamic laws. The Ministry of Interior is pushing for a ban on VPNs, which help individuals bypass internet censorship in countries with strict controls.
The chairman of the Council of Islamic Ideology stated that Shariah permits the government to prevent actions that contribute to the 'spread of evil.' He emphasized that any platform used for sharing controversial, blasphemous, or anti-national content should be shut down immediately.
