PETALING JAYA: Google Malaysia has blocked YouTube access to the controversial "Innocence of Muslims" video clip in response to a complaint from the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC).
Those
trying to load the video from a Malaysian Internet Protocol (IP)
address would see a message that reads: "This content is not available
in your country due to a legal complaint. Sorry about that."
Google Communications and Public Affairs head Zeffri Yusof confirmed the videos had been blocked in Malaysia.
"Where
we have launched YouTube locally and we are notified that a video is
illegal in that country, we will restrict access to it after a thorough
review,” he said on Monday.
The video has also been blocked in various other countries, including Indonesia, India, and Egypt.
However,
some of the videos can occasionally still be seen on YouTube as users
were continually uploading it to the video-sharing site.
MCMC chairman Datuk Mohamed Sharil Tarmizi said the commission and Google would "continue to work together to ensure that the offending content is unavailable."
The MCMC had filed an official complaint with Google on Saturday over the video.
