YouTube Irony

There is a huge irony in Bangladesh govt blocking YouTube inside the country.

That's because one of the three founders of YouTube is of Bangladeshi-German origin.

That would be Jawed Karim.

Hi Sven,

I will check some more, but it sure looks like a joke - maybe the BD version of The Onion :-)
