Is Banning Facebook the right decision?

The government of Pakistan blocked Facebook days ago because of anti-religious photos and activities on the largest social networking platform in the world. The most recent news is, the government of Bangladesh has done the same this evening, but not because of the same reason. According to bdnews24.com, the largest online newspaper in Bangladesh, the site has been blocked in Bangladesh following the incident of arresting a guy from the capital who was alleged to have shared caricatures of the prime minister and the opposition leader.

The newspapers also report that the guy was a hacker who used several fake identities on the virtual world to commit cyber crimes and other evil deeds. Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) officials anonymously told news agenices that Facebook is blocked mainly for the reason that anti-religious contents were shared on the website across the globe. I have no idea why the government thinks that banning will result in something good.

Well, that’s the part newspapers are talking about. But the main fact that I want to talk about is different. And I am going to focus on some important things today on the ban of Facebook. I will not talk about the way the government is walking through for digitalizing (?) our country. I will just try to analyze if banning is the right decision, and will express reaction to the fact.
