Mukesh Ambani-owned Reliance Jio appears to have banned hundreds of popular adult websites in India including Xvideos and Pornhub after a recent order by the Department of Telecommunications. While the telecom operator has not issued an official statement on the development so far, many Jio users pointed out on Reddit that several porn websites are no longer available on Jio network. “I’ve been trying to load a few of the porn sites but none of them seem to load on the Jio network. Is it just me or are you people facing the same issues,” one Reddit user wrote.
Earlier this week, the government had asked the internet service providers to block 827 websites that host pornographic content following an order by the Uttarakhand High Court. According to news agency PTI, the Uttarakhand High Court had asked to block 857 websites but the Ministry of Electronics and IT (MeitY) found that 30 of these portals didn’t host any pornographic content. The order was issued by the High Court on September 27, 2018 and was received by the ministry on October 8.
