COLOMBO ? Sri Lanka has blocked over 100 porn websites that allegedly feature local men and women, the government said Thursday, in its biggest yet Internet censorship move.

The Sri Lankan Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (TRC) has been asked to prevent users in the country accessing some 107 adult websites, the government information department said.

The move followed complaints heard at Colombo's Juvenile Court that children had free access to the websites, which featured Sri Lankan men and women.

Other adult sites featuring non-Sri Lankans will remain available, however.

In July last year, the TRC blocked 12 other porn websites, including redtube.com, an adult content sharing portal.

Some countries have strict laws about their citizens. For example, the Dominican Republic has laws about posting nude / topless photos of Dominicans online. If your not Dominican you can go to the Dominican Republic and take all of the nude pictures you want and post them where ever, but not if you a citizen.

They were duped by a geo-ip banner ad?

how can you get your site on that list? you'll never get a single conversion from that traffic, might as well avoid the bandwith waste...

Lemme tell you a story about geoip banners...

A while back, I was dating this chick whos family was very religious and old fashioned. When I started dating her, she had me help her dad buy some camera lens online because he didn't know english. I used my email for the confirmation and all that, and the transaction went through perfectly.

Fast forward 1,5yr.

He's checking some bonus points for some gas station online, and when entering his email it autocompletes to mine. He decides, hey, i'll checkout my daughters boyfriends website, mechbunny.com. He goes here, and starts following through to the portfolio links. He gets on some tube sites, and sees some AFF geoip banners.

He proceeds to lecture his daughter about how I'm pimping local girls out for online porn and prostitution, I'm in the mafia, That my company is illegal because my domain is .com and not .pl, etc.

Unrelated...but a good story none the less

So.......... the dozen people in Sri Lanka with internet access and computers not can't watch or purchase porn? I am sure they are devastated.

So they don't want children looking at Sri Lankan men and women but they can look at anything they like as long as it's foreign?
