The law is not just about porn, but also other "obscene material" like pro-LGBT material, material critical of the regime (Wired is banned because of this), illegal Bibles etc.
- andycroll 15y agoWired is not banned you can get the UK & US editions in most bookshops. It's just expensive! Various publications that have been critical of the political environment have been dragged into court to deal with Singapore's not-so-friendly libel laws. The LGBT situation is culturally more acceptable than it was, but there is still a lot of work to be done. NB: I am a liberal Brit who lives and works in Singapore (nearly 5 years now)
