That’s really tough for people in Afghanistan. Taking away social media cuts them off from the world completely. It’s not just about posting stuff , it’s their voice. I hope something changes soon, because nobody deserves to be silenced like that. It’s just sad.

Afghanistan, after taliban came in to the government has made many such laws which is against women or the common people. They are still living in the stone age or want their people to cut off from the world and don't want them to know about the world.

They are trying to suppress people's voices. In a country where human rights are not guaranteed, it is a way to hide the atrocities of the oppressive regime.

Yes, they are doing this. They don't want their people to learn anything and don't want to let their people connect to the world. The women in Afghanistan suffer the most, they are not allowed to go out and now they won't be able to socialise with the people.
