The public prosecutor sent
official letters to the Communications and Information Technology
Minister, the Interior Minister and the head of the National
Telecommunications Regulatory Authority on Wednesday ordering that they
block pornographic websites.
Public Prosecutor Abdel Meguid
Mahmoud wrote that such websites show images that are contrary to the
values and traditions of Egyptian society and the national interest, his
spokesperson Adel al-Saeed said.
The State Council
Administrative Court in May 2009 decreed that the government should ban
porn websites. The court said such websites help spread vice, which
destroys traditions, beliefs and morals, and therefore the country’s
interests as well as social and national security.
