Nope, that's not how things in Bulgaria or even the Balkans in general work. The state definitely has ideas how things are supposed to work but on the ground often it does not work as expected. This is a problem for things like making roads safe or corruption, but on the other hand it also means the state does not have the power to control the daily lives of the citizens, which yields the sense of freedom that we are…
We are talking about TV channels switching to erotics exactly at midnight. That is state regulation. They are not allowed to show it before, are allowed to show it later and thus all switch in sync. Balkans have a lot of corruption. But this one seems to he followed.
I had no idea, probably no one has. As it is stated in the wikipedia article, authorities tolerate porn on TV after 23:00. On our TV cable network it was 00:00 but on others apparently it starts earlier.
As you can see, things don't work according to the laws in Bulgaria and the switch to porn at 00:00 has nothing to do with the laws.
The attitude is, this is not governments job - no matter what the laws say.
