David Cameron's Porn Cock-up

I'm inclined to agree with this Guardian article in which the major ISPs are reported as asserting that David Cameron's new pornography filtering proposal will prove to be insignificant in effect.

There are basically two good political actions which could be legislated for in regard of internet pornography:

(1) The first and by far the best action would be simply to ban all pornographic content from being hosted by or supplied to public internet users by any servers and other IT infrastructure physically located in British territory under the jurisdiction of British courts and subject to UK law.

(2) The second option - not as good as the first, but with some merit - would be to restrict all pornographic content to a specific XXX domain and then to require that the internet function in such a way that access to that pornographic content only be available on an opt-in basis requiring the completion of a formal registration process in order for licensed users to have a 'porn-enabled' internet connection.

Pornography is poison. No decent Government should allow the poisoning of its people.

  1. 1) you have no idea how the Internet works and your suggestions are utterly ridiculous

    2) as I've stated before, your blogs contain a lot of porn

    3) Move to China for as much state censored Internet as you will ever need.

    Seriously, move there. Now.

    Then try blogging about the police as you do, the government etc. Go on move. Please. I'll personally buy you a one way ticket.
