Yahoo search engine to sing Anti-porn tune in India

the internet accessing community is wise enough to decide what's worth watching , it curtails the view power to adult content by some one feeels to have a look at it , instead measures should b taken to prevent these accessions by non- adult users!!

My answer is definitely NOT.Because if at all if the search engines are banned the adult sites the people will go for another method of getting the sites becuase if "we restrict any person from doing anything it will create an enthusiasm in their mind so that they want to know about such things in any manner".this leads to another way of letting them know.Anyway this may be a bit helpful just by banning these sites.But it must be taken as an individual's responsibilty just to look after this.

i dont think it will have any impact on it

peope allwayssurc for those things..

anf any thin like this will not stop it

as we know in some countries its allowed so it will bw dificult

if any thing is possible is that servers have to think about it like bsnl and air tel servers who provide internet for us if they can do some thing then only we can stop it

even then also it is very difficult because if yahoo blocks nothing will effect there are so many surching sites like yahoo

which provide all things..

so blocking any one site dont have effect in it..

if server blocks it then it may be possible to block for some extent they dont do it

because those are the things of incum for them they dont want to loom them...

I can't understand one thing, why we are so quick to ban or censor everything which we percieve as not being of our culture. I guess we need to learn from our past that in a country like India no ban is ever effective, be it on movies, books or anything else. We are good at piracy and we can make anything available to anyone. Banning it only increases the premium attached to it. You ban a movie and the pirated CD prices doubles, you ban a book and copied paperbacks of same sell like hot cakes at double the price. Censorship never worked in past and never will because it is too subjective. We have a ridiculous censors board for films, whose ideas and policies changes the moment its chairman changes, so in one person's regime we have seen movies with vulgar songs and dialouges and in others all political ones got censored. Something which has a definite pattern can be controlled, but not the free will.

Sonam is right! First, it is very difficult to implement such restrictions. Second,  when things are banned, that is what makes them more inquisitive.

In such a liberalised world where people are used to certain lifestyle, there is no point in censoring certain things, that too on 'world wide web'. If people wish that such content should not be accessible, then automatically movements will start. Till such time these restrictions won't help!

Governments are - generally - idiots, period. Any censorship works best when it is natural. Whenever governments take up the matter of regulation mostly they end up messing up things even more. There are governments around the world who implement censorship on the Internet and end up blocking sites that do not suit them politically. Therefore, self-censorship is the best and educating people is the feasible way.
