The list only seems to contain small portion of what is blocked mostly torrent sites and piracy stuff. Almost all porn sites are banned yet not mentioned. The scariest part is that there is no visibility.

Interestingly, reddit blocks nsfw subs in india with few non nsfw too. Telegram web is blocked. Streamable, redgif and few other content sites are blocked on specific ISPs.

They blocked reddit as a whole too before.

They have issued orders for sites like github and pastebin in the past. - https://qz.com/india/319866/a-threat-from-isis-prompts-india...

[1] 28 internet shutdowns this year. 106 in 2019, and 134 in 2018.

IFF is doing good job in fighting against censorship. Check their page [2] for information and support.

What can people do about the draconian laws coming?

People support this. If they were uneducated, you can educate them but many of them are educated indians, how do you change their mind?

There's a decent write-up about the legal issues around blocking the satirical website called Dowry Calculator, written here: https://internetfreedom.in/delhi-hc-issues-notice-to-the-gov...

Some ommenters are stating that some subreddits are specifically banned as well, such as r/NSFW.

Given that reddit uses TLS, I assume Reddit is assisting governments in banning content like this as well?

The actual orders.[1] These are all in India.

Most of these are over copyright issues. It's like reading DMCA takedown notices.
