A few hours back, reports on Github, Vimeo and 30 other websites being banned in India started to pour in (citing security issues, in the context of terrorism). I first thought this had to be a hoax. But I was not able to access github.com on the Aircel network with the message that this website had been banned because of high court orders. It seems some internet service providers have indeed started to ban these websites! What is the government thinking!
