5 Alternatives to YouTube Where It Is Banned!

It was recently seen that due to the upload of anti-Islamic Movie, The Innocence of The Muslims, Many Muslim Countries banned YouTube, along with some other Google Services in the country. Although appeals were made initially to the Google team for the removal of such clips but the team was reluctant to do so, resulting in 20,000 IPs been blocked in countries, including Pakistan.

It has been a more than a month now that the countries have not removed their ban from YouTube, giving a serious situation to the owners of this Largest Video Sharing Website.
