The service of Facebook, Viber and Whatsapp are
blocked from now till further notice. It has been
ordered by Begum Tarana Halim, State Minister, Post
and Telecommunications.

I just saw this on BdNOG and thought it might be
interesting to others here and where some of the
internet is headed...
Wow, all of these govt's just can't seem to deal
with not being able to completely control *everything*
about the populace.
So, in Bangladesh, no communicating with your social
peers, no free calls, text or picture sharing and no
mobile messaging. The new State Minister for Post
and Telecommunications in Bangladesh wants her money.
It'd be interesting to hear how they're attempting
to make it happen.
