Dear Sarbajit,
In response to your email:http://sanjeev-sabhlokcity.blogspot.in/2013/06/re-skc-fuckwit-extraordianaire.html
then one gets a mirror of the IAC "home page"
What is one to conclude from that?
2. I asked what is the IAC position on porn - is it free speech or not?
India has many stupid laws, that is besides the point. Many Indians (including the entire sangh parivar) labour under the delusion that Victorian social mores and customs are their own culture.

3. Really? I did not know the US had some great *policy* position on porn - it is just protected under the second amendment as free speech. And, Denmark? How did poor, little state Denmark manage to get into your bad books - I could still understand Netherlands or Norway or Sweden, given their rules on internet domains, but Denmark?
4. As a telecom analyst, I can tell you that porn sites as a source of income for telcos is not more or lesser than say, youtube or bootleg torrents or legal video sites or massive, multi player gaming - all of these require broadband, which is typically prices on a "all you can eat buffet" flat fee basis - so selling more of these connections is important to the telcos, and it is easy because users want high speed broadband for all kinds of things, of which porn may be one thing.
5. Trying to get bad laws enforced is a bad course of action, and harms the citizens of this country - of course, IAC is free to act upon its own impulses and motivations. But, I totally disagree with IAC trying to curtail speech.
Cheers

Dear Supratim
1) IAC has not spoofed Sanjeev Sabhlok or spoofed SKC. Why should we
waste our time on such irrelevant fools and the cyber dramatics they
employ to promote themselves ?
2) In India ALL internet porn is (a) prohibited (b) NOT covered under
free speech. That is the legal position - not IAC's.
3) There is a huge lobby of foreign financed haramis working overtime
to align India's position on pornography with that of USA or Denmark.
4) Since you track telecom, you know well the ARPU hit on their
bottomlines if net-porn is actually stopped.
5) At the moment we are working to get the existing IT laws enforced
administratively. In other words requiring that the babu's
discretionary powers be uniformly applied.
