Bangladesh Blocks Access To 6 Social Apps Indefinitely

The Bangladeshi government has blocked access to 6 social apps in the country. Facebook, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Line, Viber and Tango have all been blocked “indefinitely” following fears of civil unrest after the recent executions of two war criminals. Many Bangladeshi netizens have been skirting around the bans, however, with information about proxy servers and virtual private networks being circulated widely online in the country. Earlier this week the Bangladeshi government was left red-faced after it accidentally cut off the entire internet to the country for over an hour.
