What is it with moralizing politicians who scream and legislate against some moral “evil,” and then are later caught being heavily involved in just such a thing? The latest such example comes from Indonesia, where a politician by the name of Arifinto, who was an avid supporter of a controversial anti-porn law that is extremely strict (it prohibits broadcasting, possessing and storing pornographic material — along with forbidding kissing in public, exposing a woman’s “sensual” parts or showing any erotica), has been caught viewing porn on his iPad while sitting in Parliament and “listening” to a debate about a new Parliamentary building. Arifinto quickly stepped down from Parliament, but I’m surprised no one’s blamed the iPad yet…
