Kamasutra was written in India for heavens sake.

Yes. Because there are only 857 porn websites on the internet :\

 

[saarth]

And the one site commonly or historically known to have CP, 4chan is still up and running well.

CP was something govt. said to save face, blocking CP wasn't their target, blocking porn was. I voted for BJP because of their development agenda, not because of their Hindutva agenda.

ISPs Put Their Foot Down, Ask Government to Get Clear on #PornBan | The Wire

There is another important factor in India - Its Politics.

To satisfy backers like RSS and right wing ideologues who are integral part of BJP political machinery. BJP's ban on Beef is another example of it. Similarly Ban on alcohol.

Porn sites was not a moral/cultural issue until BJP came into power. They're making it moral issue because of Politics.

Not following this thread so I may be posting an already posted joke.

I just got a joke where Kejriwal complains:

"Modi sarkar humko kaam nahi krne de rahi. Humne Free WiFi ki ghosna ki to unhone porn ban kar diya!"
