TV and movie lovers in Asia jumped for joy earlier this month when Netflix finally launched throughout the region.

Some in Indonesia, however, weren't so excited by the news. The country's largest telco, PT Telkom Indonesia, announced that as of 12 a.m. Wednesday morning they had blocked access to the streaming service on all of its Internet platforms.

Dian Rachmawan, Telkom's Director of Consumers, said the ban was put in place due to Netflix not following the country's broadcast laws and for having violent and "pornographic" content, Indo Telko reports. The exec did not specify which content the company found to be overly violent or indecent.

    Some people have no idea where a link is going to take them.

    As evidenced by this very thread, there are a helluva lot of people who still believe what someone tells them.

    Without research or verification.

    To do so leaves one wide open for being taken advantage of and enslaved.
