X, formerly Twitter, remains intermittently down in Pakistan
X is facing disruption in Pakistan with users unable to access the app
X, formerly Twitter, on Monday, continued to be intermittently down across Pakistan.
X was restored earlier today after an over 36-hour blockade since Saturday (February 17), however, it remained inaccessible throughout Monday.
The users are reported to be accessing the microblogging website and its app via VPN.
Meanwhile, the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) is not responding to queries related to the blockage of the X platform.
Internet watchdog NetBlocks also confirmed disruption. It said, “Metrics show X/Twitter has now been restricted in #Pakistan for over 48 hours as concerns mount over election fraud; authorities have failed to provide a lawful basis for the measure, which violates the public’s fundamental right to free expression at a critical moment.”
