Sri Lankan Government Out To (BRING DOWN) M.I.A!
@_M_I_A_ has claimed that the Sri Lankan government is applying pressure on YouTube users to remove her videos. M.I.A recently claimed that Google and Facebook had been created by the C.I.A.
The British-Sri Lankan rapper claimed users were being told that they were “supporting terrorism” by uploading the clips.
“They buried my Paper Planes, none of my ****ing shit comes up,” she told The Guardian. “All my videos have been constantly pulled, the latest thing that’s up there is from 11 months ago.”
When asked if it was her record label who was pulling them, she replied: “No, the Sri Lankan government is writing to them and saying, ‘If you stick MIA videos up we’re gonna take you to jail for supporting terrorism.’”
M.I.A has endured a fraught relationship with the government of Sri Lanka, and has been labelled a “terrorist sympathiser” over her father’s links to the Tamil separatist movement.
The singer released her latest album ‘/\/\/\Y/' earlier this summer.

Maya reshot part of the video on her personal Flip cam. “XXXO COMIN ALL OVER MY LOVERS AND HATERS,” she tweeted.
