The Juvenile court in Battaramulla has ordered the Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (TRC) to ban another 81 websites which display pornographic content by this Friday.

In a previous occasion, the court ordered the ban of 107 porn sites and as a result of the new directive the total number of porn sites banned has increased to 188, sources at the Women and Child’s Bureau told Daily Mirror online.

The next hearing is scheduled for Friday. (Daily Mirror online)

    They should worry more about real life examples of badly behaved public figures (such as some ministers) that give the green light to mischief and crime. Instead they are pretending to create a false sense of morality while excusing criminal behavior.

    Why not ban everything and then lift it on request?

    Well, someone sure is having a ball of a time compiling these lists, at taxpayers' expense. I would like to see how he lists his current job on a CV.

    Oh! I get it! Whenever the TRC people visit a new website, they insist that the rest of the country should not see it!

    are we becoming a extension of china? am i seeing hits of equilibrium (the movie) in reality...
    people should have their choice to select what is good for them. they do have plenty of things to be taken care of than spending people's time and money on stuff like these.
    I guess executives at TRC enjoy paid working hours to look at all the porn sites and compile these lists... great!

    I would like to volunteer for a job of browsing the net and finding porn sites, and compiling a comprehensive list. Since more and more such sites are coming up, i will have continuous work

    I did a Google search for Porn and got 148,000,000 results. If the list is typed in 5mm line height, then list will be 740km long. That means twice the length of Sri Lanka.
