Council of Islamic Ideology under fire over decree against use of VPNs
ISLAMABAD: Digital rights activists and religious scholars have questioned the Council of Islamic Ideology (CII) decree calling the use of VPNs un-Islamic.
In an unprecedented proclamation on Friday, CII chief Dr Raghib Naeemi said using VPNs to access “immoral or illegal content” was against Sharia. The council advises parliament on aligning legislation with Islamic teachings.
A CII member told Dawn that the statement was Dr Naeemi’s “personal views” and not the council’s decision.
