Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Jio has banned hundreds of major pornography websites such as Xvideos, Pornhub, Xnxx, etc on its network. Though the company is yet to release an official statement, the move was noticed by several Jio users who posted messages on blogs.
"I've been trying to load a few of the porn sites but none of them seem to load on the Jio network. Is it just me or are you people facing the same issues?" a Reliance Jio user posted on Reddit. The thread saw multiple users complaining about similar issues subsequently.
Jio subscribers who were trying to access some of the popular porn websites met with a message which says, “You are not authorized to access this web page as per the DoT compliance." Meanwhile, some users also received a ‘connection error’ message.
