no i was saying that gay porn does not exploit women, because it doesn't (the bit about the children i didn't see i didn't mean to comment on that)

I'm not bothered either way but I find it amusing that the government think this is going to work anyway, people will always find away to get round filters, they already do...

Reading this though

Quote:

Only an adult will be able to change the filter settings and the account holder will receive a confirmation email. Some ISPs are offering text alerts, in case children hack into the account.
That doesn't sound like you need to specifically contact the ISP to have the filters removed? just sounds like you can turn them off and will receive an email confirming it..

I actually passionately hate DM, the people in charge of it need to be put down! Sure how do they explain blaming the death of two little girls on porn? Huge difference between child porn and normal porn. Id probably be more pissed off if it affected me

Because the internet is it's own entity and the legal side of it shouldn't be bogged down by some idiotic people in government.

And yet there are restrictions everywhere, no strip clubs in residential areas, sales of booze and cigs, even down to where girly mags are positioned on shelves.... why is this seen as such an infringement?
It is I guess a form of social control what is accessible to individuals, yet as said if some really must have it they will nobody is saying watching porn is illegal.
You have to weigh up the pros and cons of these changes.

If the childs watching porn its the parents fault tbh, If your stupid enough to give a child access to the internet and not supervising them they're obviously going to google dirty stuff. Honestly, its not hard to tell them to stay in the same room as you when they're online and have a peak every so often.

Looks like most of yous are going to be using the wank bank anyway

Mainly because I suspect that those who opt out will have their internet habits monitored. If you go to a strip club, you arent followed home by police to see what else you get up to. And so on...

I think those who opt-out will be targeted, too, because it'll come across as "suspicious" as to why they don't want to be restricted.

there are more women in the world than just in this thread. this thread does not represent all women around the world.

Saw a discussion about this on TV yesterday.

Experts feel this measure will be completely ineffective as regards the worst kinds of child abuse porn. That kind of stuff is mainly distributed via P2P sites these days, much in the same way as illegal music sharing. It is often heavily encrypted as well.

But, as usual, governments feel they needed to be seen to be doing something, even if that something is pointlessly ineffective.

don't think i'd be that bothered if i couldn't watch Porn on the internet, if i was 16/17 again i would be raging, besides i have put a good collection of my favourite scenes over the years on disk stored away in a Rocky DVD case, i am one step ahead of Cameron.

Do not be Silly.




This is to protect under young children
it will take a year to do



Labour will follow it
as its a election gig

I didn't say there wasn't!!!:conf: and I didn't say it did.

CaudleHalbard 22-07-2013 12:38 PM

It doesn't take away any rights. It gives adults the option to have a porn filter or not.

Some parents might welcome it.

Maybe some will, that's a small price to pay to save lives.
