    IT act says nothing about accessing pornography to be consider illegal, it means you're allowed to access them.
    Distributing, publishing, storing pornography is illegal and punishable offense though.

    Accessing porn at cafe is illegal.At home, if you're an adult..it's fine.Publishing/distributing in any way is illegal.

    Not browser cache, I mean storing the *content* on your hard disk drive. If I visit your signature, I won't be punished for it. Uh-oh.

    Maybe all those Indian adult sites are hosted offshore.

    What if an Indian citizen runs a porn website which is hosted, say in Hongkong? Does it prevent the person from running an adult site? Could someone clarify this....

    The cyber laws in India are not clear enough. Most lawyers argue that it is legal to watch adult content, but you're not allowed to distribute or create pornography.

    If you are living in India, they you are supposed to follow the Indian law irrespective of the place of the crime.
