Afghanistan Orders Ban Of Whatsapp And Telegram by FemiFemola: 2:37pm On Nov 04, 2017
The Afghanistan government has requested a ban on instant messaging services WhatsApp and Telegram.

The letter by telecoms regulator ATRA, dated Nov. 1 and signed by an official of the regulator, directed internet companies to block Telegram and Facebook Inc’s (FB.O) WhatsApp services “without delay” for a period of 20 days.

The ban was reportedly initiated to stop the Taliban and other insurgent groups from using encrypted messaging.
