We had published an article by Itty Abraham about the Indian porn toon series, Savita Bhabhi (Read It Here)
In the Last few days we have been experiencing increased traffic in The Fish Pond via search queries about Savita Bhabhi. Today it has been confirmed that SavitaBhabhi.com(linked via Corel Cache) has been banned by Govt of India. Contentsutra Report confirms the ban
Controller of Certifying Authorities (CCA), a government agency under the Department of Information Technology, is the agency that is entrusted under the IT Act to block websites. N. Vijayaditya, of the CCA has confirmed the development. “There were several complaints against the site. We have taken action under the relevant sections of the IT Act and blocked the site,” he said.
A desi Jack Thompson is also quoted in this report:
“Cartoons are a more participative medium. Videos don’t do as much damage. When a child is watching a cartoon, he imagines himself as the character. This has a deeply corrupting influence on our youngsters. This, apart from the fact that an Indian name was being used in such an obscene cartoon, is what led me to make the complaint,” Vijayashankar said. “A child will see a Savitabhabhi among his relatives.”
It can still be accessed via the multiple proxy servers out there.

Dear Anivar,
Thanks for sharing this news here. However, your stand is not very clear from the article, though you seem to be agitated that Savita Bhabhi is banned. Is it that it is bad to have censorship, or it’s bad when state intervenes.. Or is it just about freedom for porn?

Freedom is freedom to do(or read) something we do not like and creative ideas originate in a free mind. A society, which can tolerate much, in the name of freedom, will also be gifted much as a result of free thoughts. By limiting freedom we are ensuring that our children are freed from the influence of not only bad thoughts but also good thoughts.
