Increased censorship on cable channels.

I find it increasingly annoying with the censoring of material on Indonesian cable channels. It is now getting stupid with fake wounds in movies now being blurred out, never mind the blurring of minor cleavage. Now it has also been applied to the Discovery channels where operations on body parts are being shown and regular blurring of the medical procedures. The whole idea of watching these shows is to marvel at humans ability to do these things.
Soon we will have all kissing scenes deleted from Indonesian TV channels just like they do on Saudi Arabian inflight movies.

And just like already on the Free To Air channels, the images with blood will be switched to black and white, and cigarettes and guns will be blurred.

Luckily via the cable we don't get bombarded with hypocrite cigarette ads and (Shopee) shows with sexy dangdut singers (nothing wrong with that) where the background dancers carry fake machines guns (something very wrong with that).
