Sky to block pornography by default to protect children
Found on BBC News on Tuesday, 20 January 2015
In 2013 Prime Minister David Cameron put pressure on internet service provider [ISPs] to make online filtering mandatory, saying it was the best way to protect children.
"ORG's Blocked project (www.blocked.org.uk) has shown that filters block all kinds of websites, including some that provide useful advice to children and young people. Customers need to understand the implications of filters before deciding whether or not they want them."
Maybe parents should do their job and pay attention to what their kids are doing online, instead of annoying everybody else. Besides, the kids are smart enough to work around those filters anyway and so all this is just snake oil.
