orkut is a community mainly meant for fun. School, colleges, offices ban it because it can distract mind from productive and educative jobs. They legally have the right to ban any site which they want and sites not involved in any purpose for which they provide internet. However as said in last reply there are numerous free proxy sites(like hidemyass.com) available on the net by which you can easily bypass the restriction. However in my opinion I personally don't like banning of sites. I am too a website designer and I also run a small friends community site.

Orkut helps us to keep in touch with our old frnds and also helps to find new frnds. But most of the people get addicted to it and spend most of the time in it. So, if it is not banned in offices, then most of the employees will spend time in that and will fail to complete the job in time. This is the main reason for orkut being banned in many offices. Also, in orkut lots of pronographics are there and it is also one of the reason for orkut being banned.

I think orkut is a very good site which i have come across so i really dont think that it should be banned just because of 2-3 disadvantages. i have meet many of my old friends because of orkut and atleast now i am aware about them and i am in the contact with them. so i dont think that it should be banned.
