Facebook Returns To Bangladesh

Yesterday, Bangladesh restored access to Facebook,after banning the site for a week following the “Everybody Draw Mohammed Day” group controversy. The country has followed in the steps of Pakistan who both banned and reopened access to the site after Facebook decided to censor access to the controversial groups from within Pakistan.

According to AFP, “The Bangladesh Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (BTRC) ordered the country’s international Internet gateway providers to unblock the site after the US-based company agreed to remove the offending images and content.”
