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.

Sin has many tools, but a lie is the handle which fits them all.

Yep, and despite the fact that those links were obviously pointing to truly pornographic sites (since SoylentNews does show the domain being linked to), there was some religious nut still bitching sarcastically about religious content not being safe for work. I guess that goes to show just how dumb and gullible many religious people are.

I was the one who posted that religious programming is NSFW. I wasn't being sarcastic -- snarky, yes,. but sarcastic, no. What's more, I was poking religious nutters with a stick. Which is good fun!
Religions are false belief systems. There's no reason that a reasonably well educated person should hold such beliefs.
What's more, I knew exactly where those links pointed, as I wrote that post too.
Religious programming is enormously more harmful than porn in my view.
So, plus two points for your obvious conviction about this and minus five points for getting it completely wrong.
