The blog site somewhereinblog.net and the online library collection, Google Books, were found on a BTRC ban list the Dhaka Tribune obtained on Wednesday evening. “All I know is that we blocked a number of porn sites, but I cannot provide specific details,” he added. Posts, Telecommunications and Information Technology Minister Mustafa Jabbar said they ordered blocking of more than 20,000 phonographic websites, along with somewhereinblog and Google Books. The government is not having the porn sites blocked by internet service providers (ISPs) alone,” Jabbar said. The blogging website ranked second while Google Books ranked 28th on a list of 345 porn websites as seen on an Excel sheet, which the BTRC sent to the ISPs as part of the crackdown.
