Saudi telecommunications company has blocked telephone calls with 21 countries to prevent its youth from having "sex chat" with girls from these countries under the so-called international friendship lines.
The Emirati Al Ittihad newspaper has quoted a statement by the company as saying that calls to these countries will not be banned totally, but must be made through its international calls center.
It warned that any country proven to have contacts with the lines will be added on the blacklist. It added that the decision will ease the heavy financial burden on the callers who pay big amounts of money for the porno calls; it said that some parents had to pay SR 250,000 in bills. The total value of the bills they have to pay for the company stand at one billion riyal (about $300m), according to the report – Albawba.com
