In order to curb the online consumption of obscene and pornographic content in the country, the government of India has blocked a total of 18 OTT platforms.
Additionally, 19 websites, 10 Apps and 57 social media handles were blocked by the central government.
The blocked OTT sites are Dreams Films, Voovi, Yessma, Uncut Adda, Tri Flicks, X Prime, Neon X VIP, Besharams, Hunters, Rabbit, Xtramood, Nuefliks, MoodX, Mojoflix, Hotshots VIP, Fugi, Chikooflix and Prime Play.
The content on these platforms violates the IT Act, Indian Penal Code and Indecent representation of Women (Prohibition) Act.
After numerous warnings, the government finally decided to take down these platforms.
Most of these platforms enjoy a massive viewership. One of the apps has more than one crore downloads. Two other apps crossed the landmark of 50 lakh downloads. These figures show the demand for these platforms in the country.
