All Indians today are 'asking for a friend'. #PornBan — Rituparna Chatterjee (@MasalaBai) August 2, 2015

So what else are people doing in India on Sunday morning now that porn sites have been blocked? Talk? Read newspapers? Watch Jism2? #PornBan — Aseem Chhabra (@chhabs) August 2, 2015

To ban porn saying it will be seen by who shouldn't see it is like saying to stop traffic because there will be accidents

Porn Ban is a ploy by the BJP Government to increase tourism in Khajuraho Temples of Madhya Pradesh ! — रचित सेठ (@rachitseth) August 1, 2015

Is this porn ban another ploy by BJP against AAP's free WiFi scheme? Will Modi answer. — Zaid Hamid (@SirZaidHamid) August 1, 2015
