Govt goes after porn, makes ISPs ban sites - The Times of India

NEW DELHI: The government has decided to put a blanket ban on several websites that allow users to share pornographic content.

In an order dated June 13, department of telecom (DoT) has directed internet service providers (ISPs) to block 39 websites. Most of them are web forums, where internet users share images and URLs to download pornographic files. But some of these websites are also image hosts and file hosts, mostly used to store and share files that are non-pornographic.

Tor + Obfsproxy is the way forward.

Atleast, they're not doing this in the name of saving men from "Impure thoughts".
Where there is a will, there's a way.

I see a hot-discussion coming.

The US Govt. couldn't do it, so I think Indian Govt. will never ever be able to do so. Moreover, IF somehow they are able to do it, I'm sure Anonymous wont leave them

Okay I thought porn was legal to watch here? Govt. has no locus standi to order such a ban.

Why they didn't do this, when some ministers watched P0RN inside the parliament?
Feeling Enlightened now?
