It’s raining memes after telecom providers are ordered to block over 800 porn sites

The order came on September 28 and the high court said that internet service providers will have to ban the sites or face cancellation of their licences. (Read this story in Malayalam)

“Unlimited access to these pornographic sites is required to be blocked (or) curbed to avoid an adverse influence on the impressionable minds of children,” the bench had said in their ruling. (Read this story in Bengali)

Although the order came in September, it wasn’t till recently that internet users started facing the shutdown. Many popular porn sites have now been blocked on many networks, but it seemed that Jio users are the worst hit. They complained bitterly on Reddit and Twitter that they cannot access any adult websites any longer. While some thought the decision was archaic and criticised the government for the move, others took solace in humour. With #pornban, social media has been flooded with memes and GIFs, particularly with those taking a dig at Jio customers.

Sample these below.
