Offending map on Web

When the Economist  sent out emails to subscribers, apparently only in India, saying there would be a delay in distribution due to issues of clearance with the Indian Customs, it drew attention to its website which had the article available to readers. That article is no different, the box included, from what was in the print edition sent out later. Does it mean that when Indian authorities ask for blanking out a map, it does not apply to the contents of web portals as well?
