The Secretary of the Economic Affairs Committee of the House of Representatives in Egypt, Ahmed Diab, submitted a request for the closure of pornographic websites across Egypt. Diab’s request was submitted to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hanafy Gebaly, and directed to the Minister of Communications. According to Diab, pornographic websites have no significant goal, except to destroy the minds of young people and families. Diab stressed that pornography addiction is not just a pastime, as some believe, but it is a disease that requires serious treatment. Pornography addiction is one of the serious obstacles that destroy the lives of young people, especially in the adolescence stage, he said.
