In an attempt to censor YouTube inside of Pakistan, the national telecom carrier sent all YouTube requests to a black hole (a route that doesn't exist). Unfortunately, they published this bad route externally to the main carrier in Hong Kong who then propagated it around the world with a relatively high priority. Ergo, a lot of people's YouTube requests were routed to Pakistan's bad route / black hole. And that's how a backward podunk country that enjoys some of the trappings of modern technology can ruin your day remotely ... with very little in the way of checks and balances to stop them.
