    Ah, yes… Who will end up paying for it? Need we ask? “You can opt-in to our uncensored internet service for only £9.99 per month”.

    What’s the betting that all this has been caused by CMD being caught with his trousers down by Mrs C, resulting in a ban on grot in No 10?

    a free internet is the scariest thing a government who intends to rule rather than serve can imagine. the governments of the west are chip chip chipping away all in the name of safety and security.

    i would like to know where the line in the sand is. when is this censorship trend going to stop? probably when its too late.

    50% of internet users ‘admit’ to viewing adult content, that’s alot of floating voters in anyone’s book. Can anyone think of a single reason why this shouldn’t be opt out rather than opt in by default?

    All I can think is Cameron is stupid’er than I ever imagined to piss off so many people, or he’s up to some gameplay that’s not yet clear.

    Interesting discussion, and one that affects me – my wife’s an internet porn-star.

    …she’s going to be furious when she finds out!

    he is stupid tinribz.
    he has about as much idea about the internet as i do about brain surgery.
    in fact less, since i know im not qualified to make up rules about what you can and cant do concerning brain surgery.

    I remember having to phone vodafone and ask them to unblock “restricted access” because it wouldnt let me look at the Holland & Holland website.

    O2’s nannyware stops me from accessing Bushcraft sites, not because of the word ‘bush’, (cough), but because knives are for sale. 🙄

    Slippery slope? ““The companies themselves are going to design what is automatically blocked, but the assumption is they will start with blocking pornographic sites and also perhaps self-harming sites,” he [Cameron]said.”

    …and perhpas other stuff we decide we don’t like in future.

    from http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/online-porn-ban-david-camerons-crusade-against-violent-pornography-unravels-amid-internet-censorship-debate-8726991.html

    The same article also has Cameron saying that page 3 online would be ok…

    Oh and as mentioned above it won’t work!

    I was initially worried about this, but I checked and fortunately I have enough porn already saved to play continuously for the next 50 years.

    So that’s exactly what I’m going to do.

    you will wear it out. I don’t mean the hard drive.

    Of course it isn’t the goverment who are going to make you opt out of porn is it. It’s your missus. They’re just giving her more power.

    If they do manage to find a way to block adult content – what’s next – file sharing?

    Is the 2007?

    After 5 years Australia dropped the idea, instead the blacklisted the Interpol Worst Of List which

    Under the Interpol process for blocking sites, the website must be reviewed by authorities in two countries before it can be added to the list.

    It’s a lame daily mail style policy to make people feel safer in their houses whilst looking for garden hoes, wet cats, huge structures being erected and the biggest collection of vintage jugs in the world.

    I’m sure if I could find ‘hedge porn’ in 1984, I’m pretty sure kids could find their way to similar content in 2013.

    Lets see “government” & “IT project” words that should never be in the same room.

    It will probably be as much use as our firms system, that blocks 1/2 the content of our own company web site!

    Wifey, who works in the prosecution side of the legal profession, commented on this on when the story broke on Sunday saying “He’s talking crap here, paedo’s(sp) share images/video’s amongst themselves and use key words.”

    Of course if the actual thing being discussed isn’t actually as bad as people are making out, you could just invent a totally new problem that doesn’t exist and try and complain about that instead.
