Porn peepers beware!

New Delhi - Cybersex fans who try to access sleazy websites through Internet
kiosks run by New Delhi's city government better be prepared to
smile for the camera, a news report said on Wednesday.
A report in the Hindu newspaper said surveillance cameras have
been installed to capture anyone trying to access pornographic
websites on video. The offenders' image is then flashed across 30
other Internet stations across city.
"This embarrasses the culprit so much that he does not dare to
make another visit to such a site," Sugata Mitra of the National
Institute of Information Technology (NIIT), the city government's
partner in the scheme said.
Delhi's municipal government set up the Internet stations last
year as part of a computer education project in the city's less
affluent areas, allowing the poor free access to the world wide
web.
"After we installed these cameras, the problem has been
contained. Not only am I able to monitor from my office who is
doing what, but the moment someone transgresses the limits he is
caught," Mitra said. - Sapa/DPA
