Dear Sir/Madam,
I am a Pakistani user and have seen that YouTube.com has been banned in Pakistan.If you prefer my website http://www.embedproxies.com then they could easily access to the videos at YouTube.com by submitting the URL and surfing them anonymously.
Have a look at the website and do let me know whether you like my idea or not.
