History

Department of Films and Publications was established in 1971 by the government of Bangladesh in exile in Kolkata during the Bangladesh Liberation war.[4] It is the government regulatory department that provides licenses for publications and films. It is also responsible for publishing and producing work on the history of Bangladesh.[1] Newspapers, magazines, and other publications are registered with the department.[5] It is responsible for Bangladesh Film Archive, responsible for archiving films made in Bangladesh.[6] On 1 March 2017, Bangladesh Betar announced that they would work with Department of Films and Publications to produce programs for radios in Bangladesh that would highlight the development activities of the government.[7]

gollark: Other websites' websockets work, and it works fine if i use the websocket backend locally without a reverse proxy.
gollark: Yes. Also working: wscat, the node.js `ws` package's client, and Firefox on my phone; it's probably *somewhat* on Firefox's end, but I imagine it might be some weird interaction between the server and client.
gollark: As I said, if this is somehow a webserver issue, I'm hoping caddy 2 will fix it, so I'm reading the docs to prepare for an upgrade to that.
gollark: Its internal HTTP logs, which I figured out how to get it to dump, do appear to show it doing *something*, but I don't understand them enough to say what.
gollark: The really weird thing is that Firefox didn't actually seem to be *sending* any request or whatever for the websockets. Nothing appears in devtools, wireshark didn't show anything websocket-looking (although I am not very good at using it, I think it was working because it showed the regular HTTP requests), mitmproxy didn't say anything either, and the webserver logs don't show it.
