UK Officials Ponder Online Porn Plan

The British government will discuss new measures to restrict children’s access to Internet pornography. Under consideration is a plan that would require parents to explicitly enable pornography. From the BBC: “Under the plans it would be up to customers to opt in to receiving adult content when they sign up for a broadband contract. Currently most providers offer a range of filters and tools that have to be set up by parents to block pornography.” Prime Minister David Cameron will reportedly be meeting with ISPs to discuss the measures.
