Popular pornography websites XVideos, Redtube and Pornhub have been blocked by two ISPs in the Philippines.

Customers of Smart and Sun Cellular said they could no longer access the sites on portable devices or desktop computers.

The Philippines government has not given any official explanation of why the sites have suddenly been blocked.

However, the country's National Telecommunications Commission that it had ordered all the nation's ISPs to block access from 14 January,

But customers using Globe and other ISPs can still access the sites.
