Pakistan to monitor Google and Yahoo for 'blasphemy'http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/world/south_asia/10418643.stm

Pakistan will start monitoring seven major websites, including Google and Yahoo, for content it deems offensive to Muslims.

YouTube, Amazon, MSN, Hotmail and Bing will also come under scrutiny, while 17 less well-known sites will be blocked. Officials will monitor the sites and block links deemed inappropriate.

In May, Pakistan banned access to Facebook after the social network hosted a "blasphemous" competition to draw the prophet Muhammad.

3. There can be no religious freedom without freedom of blasphemy.

And that's for the simple reason that almost any religious view is seen by some other religious view as blasphemy.
