Viber is no longer working on Alfa (Not sure about Touch) as the ministry has apparently stopped the service for all 3G subscribers. It is still working on Wireless connections though. Gino has some explanations as to why the service was stopped and how to bypass it. You can check them out [Here].
I think one of the reasons could be that Telecarte and Kalam cards will be back soon, if they are not back already.
Viber is an Israeli application, and it can read your entire phone book data. Since we are still in conflict with Israel it would be wise not to install the app to start with.
I think that was the reason…
Allen
the only reason is making more money like always in this country
OMG ! Yeah yeah.. next they’ll block whatsapp because the grand grandfather of the grand grand founder of whatsapp fought with Israeli soldiers back in 1401 and all stupid sheeps like you will be conviced.
You are right josef. Those damned Joos!! Most apps you use have a touch of “hebrew” in them ole boy! Happy Hanukkah to all
Before you jump into silly replies, maybe you will need to check facts:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viber
under the “company” profile you can read:
Viber Media is a Cyprus based company[14] with development centers in Belarus[15] and Israel.[16] The company was founded by American-Israeli entrepreneur Talmon Marco.[17
Am I the stupid “sheep” or “blind follower” or am I the one who actually checked and researched the fact and stated the “assumption” to enlighten your ignorant brain?
Pepsi and cola have israelian connections and i will never stop buying their products
Pepsi and Coke do not infiltrate your phonebook and build a database of all lebanese connections including high officials and military… do they?
Did you miss the part where I said its still available on wifi??? Unless its only Israeli on 3G then u got me there :p
I might be wrong about the reasons why it was locked on 3G, this was my personal assumption on the matter. Nevertheless one should be careful about these apps, if you read about whatsapp you will realize it had several security breach issues:

You need to do a little more research because that website is just an ad for another messaging app. Go to its homepage (but be careful, I think their CTO might be a Jew).
Any messaging app you use will read your phonebook data but hey, don’t let that interfere with your paranoid conspiracy theory!
And josef, I hate to be the one to tell you but not EVERYTHING you read on the internet is actually true….
“Am I the stupid “sheep” or “blind follower”….
Well? You seem to be the idiotic robot!!!
It’s funny how our lives are just fixated around Israel… everything has to answer the question: “is it israeli related?”
If you want to win work for it and stop b*tching about it!
it is funny how some Lebanese take the killing of thousands of lebanese, the multi-destruction of our country, the elimination of an entire country and the tragedy of and the palestinians so lightly….
how about you stop b*tching about how cool it is to be cool with a country like Israel… how about you wake up and look beyond bedroom!
A usual reaction
1- what did u do to help the palestinianes? Do u even donate? I highly doubt it
2- may be as usual u don’t read what ppl post, isaid: DO SOMETHING about it or shut up!
3-what about the syrian pig who’s still killing millions of innocent people? He goes away with it just bec he’s arab?
4-if u just read news and curse israelis doesnt make u a better patriot. What have u done? Buy more haneen undies?
Grow up and stop moping
Do you know me? how do you know if I am an activist or not?
or you are used to throw false accusations?
1 – how would you know if I am donating to palestinians, or to the syrians refugees?
2 – who told you if I am DOING something to fight Israel or not? again you don’t know me, did YOU do anything yourself?
3 – who told you if I am with or against the Syrian pig? and what is the relevance with VIPER?
4 – how old are you? because I am not interested in an immature debate with a juvenile.
this is my last reply I rest my case.
You should rest it because you are a little pedantic and a touch arrogant. You also must be a “juvenile” because only an immature and underdeveloped debater would say he is not interested in “immature debate with a juvenile”.
The arrogant part is because you think that it should end because YOU said so. This is not my last reply but I do rest YOUR case.
