It is called the 'hall of shame'. Within its cyber walls are pilloried a long list of websites, Internet service providers and websites which do not treat all their visitors fairly.
Sites listed in the New Delhi-based 'hall of shame' are carefully selected and only put 'in the dock' if they deserve to be there.
Run by the free software and open source network here, this site -delhi.org/wiki/HallOfShame/ - explains that it lists sites which 'force consumers' to use proprietary software or technologies.
At least 14 government-linked websites too are listed: MTNL's New Customer Care Help site, ministry of company affairs, Indian Airlines, Food Corp of India, ministry of finance, All India Radio, ministry of law and justice, department of official language, government of Delhi, government of Madhya Pradesh, official site for prime minister of India, ministry of coal, directorate general of foreign trade and the Indian Railways train enquiry.
This list gets updated from time to time as changes are made in making sites more accessible, or when new sites are added.
