India blocked social network VKontakte


Recall that the users of these groups in social networks are invited to participate in a kind of quest, the end result of which should be either causing harm to their health, or even suicide.

Ajay Kumar, a senior official at the Ministry of Information Technology of India, said that a temporary blocking of VKontakte had been implemented. Militiamen find out the influence of groups that promote suicide on Indian society and the connection of these groups with recent suicides.

          Well, the reason is still not this. In my opinion, it’s better to block for a couple of weeks in contact and wean network admins than to let hydra kill children in the country i.e. the future of the nation, and our legislators, instead of searching for pussies for 100 rubles, should have turned their uncomplicated, I would say a virgin mind on this problem, well, at least look at India ...
