Yahoo (including Flickr) and Microsoft's Bing have blocked the ability to turn off safe search functions and search for sex content in India after some recent changes to the country's laws.Anyone trying to search for sexual content from Bing gets the following message instead of their results:
"your country or region requires a strict Bing SafeSearch setting, which filters out results that might return adult content".The country's laws covering pornographic content were expanded in October to allow the government to take action against search engines, ISPs and cyber cafes - with anyone failing to disable access to pornographic content liable to spend three years behind bars.
