It takes a 'credible' witness to state that a blasphemous statement was made and that is it.
Chew on that.
I really think Western media outlets should not give publicity to these demonstrations which can even turn violent because they are simply feeding the beast with the publicity it thrives on.
If the governments of "Islamic" states want to cut off their citizens access to the wider knowledge of the world for fear that they might be exposed to blasphemous statements they are entirely free to.
No one is bothered here.

While Islamic religious law is certainly backward, the hysteria that underlies blasphemy/taboos isn't limited to medieval legal systems.
No one know where the nukes are, so mobs can't use them, but millions of desperate people, even without improvised explosives... deadlier than any nuke.
I live here and I don't see what the options are. We have gotten addicted to rent seeking behavior and the world has had enough, we just don't produce anything on a scale to maintain an economy fit enough to feed and clothe 230 million people.
Those 230M people are only going to go up in numbers.
Recounting or publishing the blasphemous statements is blasphemy in itself.

Some babu decides he doesn't like a website and now 230 million can't ever access that website ever again, and there is no recourse, just a "surf safely" label that will taunt you.

But what's hilarious is when websites ban entire countries, I cannot access the ihop.com website because they have banned us!
