UK Government Looking to Ban All Internet Porn

[f-14]

[citation][nom]millerm84[/nom]"The internet doesn't self-regulate" yet IE comes with Content Adviser that checks out sites biased on the content the site provides. What's that? Oh yeah self-regulation. Here's a cheaper solution write a law forcing parents who purchase internet access to sign up for a 2 hour course on internet "safety" the parents can pay a small amount (in the US this would be like $10/family) to keep the cost in line. And bada bing parent's can't claim ignorance and will at least have the knowledge base to protect their kids.[/citation]
i've been advocating reproduction lisc.'s for over a decade. some people don't take care of thier kids and others beat the hell out of them while others can't afford them. yet you have to get a lisc. to get married. seems like the religious nut jobs can't figure out what to make legal and illegal. idk starship trooper struck a nerve with me on rights and citizenship i guess, hahahaha.

I think this idea that it should be ISPs filtering porn is unrealistic and the emphasis should be on parents to restrict (or not restrict) what their children see on the internet. There are plenty of methods, many of which are free, for parents to control their children's surfing habits.

However I think the idea that many are presenting here, that it's just about protecting kids from the facts of life entirely naive. How many can argue that "Teen slut used as jizz bucket" is a healthy sexual attitude? When it comes down to it porn often shows an ugly side to sexuality. I don't think that it's realistic to argue that porn represents an outlet for male fantasies since the people involved are real, not actors engaged in a performance.

And since you're at it, how about filtering out Wikipedia because I'm sure somewhere on that site, it attempts to prove that the Earth is round, and we don't need some crazy heretic thoughts to be circling around in people's thoughts. All we need is a cross hanging from the wall, a benevolent priest to herd us lowly sheep and then everything will be just right! Heaven forbid that men and women can go home and enjoy an amazing session of ... gasp ... MASTURBATION!!!!!!

They might as well just shut down the internet. After all, according to everyone's favorite puppets, the internet is for porn.

We just want to make sure our children aren't stumbling across things we don't want them to see.

Straight through you.

I've been looking at porn since I was 10, I turned out ok, its not just parents. Its learning in general.

Why not just do the opposite so everybodys happen. People that want it when they get their internet can simply also ask for porn to be blocked. There'd be a whole lot less calls then people wanting porning have to ask for it to be turned back on.

the British government is pitting its will against the overactive hormones of every teenager in their entire country, piracy is slowly suffocating under digital distribution, I'm not sure how drugs are doing over there but I KNOW they won't do so well with this.

I'm not surprise in UK they want banned Porn (for the moment and all soon).
This country is really sick.
They have blood sample of all people in government database and have more than 80,000 camera to watch people.
And they have drone a lot who spy people too.

This country is more and more "1984" world.

And of course it will be not alone.

In future all what we write will be filtered (banned).

Rich hate other think by themself.
And to begin censored all why not begin to talk to say: Hey on the Internet they have just porn. All are terrorist. All are pedophile, etc.

And if The People don't agree well Governement put bomb on skyscrapper and they say its terrorist and we must make law to know all concerning People.
And The People agree.

Future will be "wonderful".

O o - "Perry claims that 60 percent of those between ages nine-to-19 have found porn online, while only 15 percent of parents know how to use filters."

You only have to look at the Essex girls to see how this adult content is affecting the lives of young children growing up and turning into tramps, because that is how our society thinks they can get a partner and what men expect. The Sun paper and it's page 3, I as a women find it disgusting but other women accept it as "oh well that is men for you." This material is not acceptable in the shops or in a family home or work place. Adult sites and bullies may have stopped me trading, but I will never give up or give in as I want change for my child. Children get called disgusting names by sick people. These adult sites cause violence in the family home, I know a Mother that suffered abuse because of her husbands addiction. This stuff destroys families and children are the ones that always end up suffering. I feel sad that the women in our Country don't seem to fight for anything and just get walked all over by men. I have been bullied by men all my life and there is no way I am allowing my child to go through the same rubbish.
