IT and Telecom Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said Tuesday that websites that don't display child pornography may resume streaming, according to local media reports. On Saturday, the Indian government initially ordered Internet providers to filter about 857 websites said to render pornographic material in a bid to protect morality. The government said the sites' content was "immoral and indecent," sites including things like Pornhub and Playboy.
"A new notification will be issued shortly. The ban will be partially withdrawn. Sites that do not promote child porn will be unbanned," Prasad told India Today TV.
India has about 350 million Internet users, a number that is expected to grow to 500 million by 2017. And for this specific sect of the Internet, India is also a world leader metrically speaking. Behind the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada, India ranks fourth when it comes to Pornhub traffic.
