Come on, orkut.com has really helped many people like me to get in touch with their old friends.
Though I agree that it can be misused by anyone, still it will be unfair to completely block the site out... more so under the influence of some gundas who tend to threaten government by damaging others' property.
Government should take a strong stand against such groups to curb further such occurances.

U can also get connected with old friends by mobile contacts/college contact or alumin things..But real anti social elements are also using to spread unnecessary things in the net.

I understand your concern. But consider this that in order to be able to contact someone via mobile/email, you have to have his contact. As you would know, in orkut and other online communities, this is not the case. You can search for them and if they have made a profile there, you can simply get to see how they are.
It uses the effectiveness of internet in a very fruitful manner.
I'm against the banning of orkut.com NOT just because bending to Shiv Sena activists will provide them more impetus to the group. I'm saying this because I feel the site is not a useless appendix which is just causing problem (as many of us would feel through newspapers and many other articles).

We never mind if we cheat people,we dont mind for corruption,we never mind for racism,we never mind for antisocial activities,we never mind for falling moral values.But.... yes we do mind for orkut. we talk freedom then why dont allow people to talk freely about their feeling about certain things.What these Shivsena like organisations do for the nation.Do they have moral values,have they ever talked about the poors.These are simply the people having only evil thoughts in their mind.
