In many countries, pornography is tightly controlled or outright banned due to cultural, religious, or legal reasons. While some nations enforce strict internet censorship, others impose heavy penalties on production and distribution. Recently, Nigeria joined the list of countries taking a firm stance against adult content, ordering a nationwide shutdown of pornographic websites. Here’s a look at the countries where pornography is either fully banned or heavily restricted.


China – Strict censorship laws prohibit pornography, with harsh penalties for distribution.
India – While personal viewing isn't illegal, the distribution, production, and sale of pornography are banned. The government also blocks adult websites periodically.
United Arab Emirates (UAE) – Strict laws against pornography, with severe punishments including fines and imprisonment.
Saudi Arabia – Completely banned, with internet filters blocking adult content.
Iran – Strict prohibition, with harsh penalties for accessing or distributing pornography.
North Korea – Extremely strict laws, with severe punishment for anyone caught consuming or distributing adult content.
Pakistan – The government actively blocks pornographic websites and penalizes those who distribute such material.
Bangladesh – Banned under obscenity laws, with crackdowns on online adult content.
Indonesia – Strict anti-porn laws, including significant penalties for distribution and access.
Turkey – Some forms of pornography are restricted, with periodic website bans.
Nigeria – In March 2025, the House of Representatives ordered a nationwide shutdown of pornographic websites, directing the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) to enforce the ban.

Partially Restricted or Censored:

South Korea – Production and distribution are illegal, though personal viewing is largely tolerated.
Thailand – Strict laws against producing and distributing porn, but online access remains widespread.
Russia – Heavy restrictions on pornography, with many websites blocked.
Egypt – Pornography is illegal under anti-obscenity laws, but enforcement varies.
Vietnam – Strict anti-porn laws, but online access is still possible through VPNs.

I am yet to see native American Indians porn, north Korea

I will like to see sentinelese

They want to islamize the world. We will not allow this.

This is pure foolishness ,reason why China can never rule the world too authoritarian,the world loves The west because the West respects human right and freedom to a large extent as long as you dont commit crime.

I would never support the policing of what people do in privacy that doesn't affect anyone

Personally u want to be gay? That's your business
You want to watch porn? Your business

You want to pray? Your business
You want to worship juju? Your business

But as soon you negatively affects or force someone else into your private doing... It becomes public and that's where the law should start


Today it's banning of porn... Tomorrow they restrict style of sex you can have in your house

Rubbish
Adults should be allowed to watch what they want to watch.
Masturbation should be encouraged among people that cannot tame their sexual urge. Let them watch porn and cum.
It will greatly reduce the rape menace and the pressure to impress the opposite sex which drives young boys into Yahoo yahoo etc.

I don't know why we can't be tactical in solving the problems we have in this country

Observe that most nations imposing a blanket ban tend to be rather authoritarian in nature. Pornography, as long as it doesn't involve children, exploitation,rape,etc is no one's concern. Adults ought to be at liberty to sexually please themselves.

Can you hear yourself ?
People are not dogs and should not be encouraged to behave like animals


If you have a problem deal with it
Do not inflict it on or pollute the rest of Society with it
or do you think it is Normal for Fathers and uncles
to be sleeping with their daughters and nieces?

Having sex is already behaving like animals, or are we not animals? What's the difference between how you have sex and how dogs, monkeys etc do it.

My post is not for hypocrites. I believe in let people choose what they want as long as it doesn't affect others negatively

Or for grown men to be defiling 5 year old children

That is what lack of self control ends in

Sharrap there
Pollution indeed. Hypocrites!!!!

You can as well ask me if it is normal for armed robbers to steal. And for that we should ban action movies too

You are here spewing rubbish, but it's you guys that do worse in private.

It is pollution of society

They should as well ban the stealing of public funds, bribery and corruption, statement of account of public and civil servants before and after assumption of office, as the election is coming up they want to use a strategy to stop the voice of the youth by restricting internet accessibility.....

Oga am not a hypocrite like you, someone who has mastered the act of satisfying himself with his hands won't commit such crimes. You rather be afraid of those sexually starved predators who have not cum in the last one month. They are more dangerous to children

Whether you watch porn or not, when that cum is ready to cum out it will come out. Ban wet dreams too

NoSmoking:

You're not serious 😂😂

Pornograghy should be totally banned in Nigeria with stringent punishments for offenders. It is very horrible that any child can easily access this things once he has a hold on a phone. The fact that pornographic materials can easily be distributed through all sorts chat apps, makes things very saddening.. Many young lives are being ruined. I still don't understand why the government is not doing enough to restrict Internet access to some of these horrible pornograghic sites

There is much more to say
Porn led to explosion of deviant behaviour
That is why countries started banning it

So people who are insisting on the sanctity and protection of Children
from perverts are now hypocrites according to you?


Can you leave your own Child with a man who has no self control?

As polygamous as our forefathers were they fully respected Children
and didn’t allow any perverted thoughts towards Children to come near their imagination

Oga why the focus on children? It's difficult for you to see child pornography on the surface. You have to develop the desire first, then go into indepth search for it. So in that case, blame your desires in the first place.

A masturbator who has mastered the act of satisfying himself secretly will not be moved by the sight of children. A man who masturbated this morning is more harmless than a man who has not had sex for months.

You will be a hypocrite, if you don't put the same energy into advocating for fornication, prostitution, hook up, adultery to be banned and criminalized .let every immorality be banned. It's as simple as that

Also advocate for the ban of Hollywood, afterall armed robbers, killers etc learn from there

That's exactly how you sound.

Who even allowed porn companies to exist in the first place. Crazy things have happened before now.



Daaaamn

If we are to follow this line of thoughts then we should ban Action movies too, and call of duty games; because they are of violent nature and they affect the minds of young folks who play/watch them.

Also please don't talk about self control and polygamy in the same sentence it literally makes no sense. A man who has sexual self control has no business marrying more than one wife- he has no business sleeping with multiple women( just because he can). I think we as Nigerians are looking at this from our usually hypocritical and religious point on view...By banning or restricting adult content, will that stop the moral decay ravaging our society? Is it because of porn that many youths have turned to ritualist and fraudsters? Is it porn that has influenced some parents to buy laptops for their teenage sons to start yahoo?

Heavily restricted eh your top number one and two is on the list of most countries with highest porn consumption rate

I find it interesting that it is often Christians who get angry when the government attempts to stop pornography.

FG should also ban all those olosho website that are used to destroy the lives of our youths, people should learn to harness their skills more and not always go the part of least resistance to make money.

That's not true. You don't need to go that deep to find children. You are also writing like everyone on the internet is normal. If people can post on Nairaland that they want to sleep with married women, some who are older than they are, how do you think everyone on the internet is normal There are some schools that ban mobile phones in Nigeria but you have parents who give children mobile phones and you say this? Didn't we see that young girl who recorded herself having sex on the internet? Was it an adult that recorded it?

Don't talk about desires because the cleanest person can get tempted the more they see things.

If you never watch porn before, raise your hand

Good idea

May your daughter become a prostitute porn star for this idiotic statement.

In same West , Prostitution is illegal but Jews went to court to say that pornography is an artistic venture protected under the freedom of expression. So Jews then pay prostitutes to have sex which on its own should be illegal before a camera.


There's is absolutely nothing good in pornography.


It doesn't benefit those who engage in the depraved act , those who watch it and society at large.


Pornography is a Jewish vice that must be eradicated.

VPN dey

I just need to put this out there for those who are hiding under rights. Take your time to listen but I don't think it will help, when porn covers your brain, you can't think we'll again.
You have become a slave to pleasure.

Follow Laila Mickelwait on X and get educated. Parents who don't know how to use tech should speak to tech experts. The streets are not outside, they are on the phones and laptop. If you cannot leave your child alone in the market square, why do you think the internet is safe for them where every type of person is there?
