Pakistani government reached Twitter a few times for access to client data or removal of accounts. Twitter turned them down each time.
As indicated by Twitter’s semiannual Transparency Report, it got 7 demands from the Pakistani government for data with respect to 60 specified Twitter accounts in the principal half of 2017. Be that as it may, Twitter did not consent to any of the solicitations and no data was given over. The administration additionally made 2 demands for crisis disclosure, every one of whom were turned down too. In the last 50% of 2016 – between July to December – the legislature influenced just 4 account data demands. The 2017 figures for the primary half demonstrate that figure has risen.
The report likewise shed light on the account termination/removal demands it got from the Pakistani government, police, and other authority offices. As indicated by these measurements, Twitter got 24 demands from Pakistan for the deletion of 82 detailed records.

In any case, the reality remains, while the quantity of record data or record deletion demands from Pakistan have expanded, every one of them stay disregarded by Twitter like the earlier years.
Aside from Twitter, other tech giants likewise put out their straightforwardness reports. In 2016, Google announced that it had satisfied 13% of the solicitations made by Pakistan Government.
