UK Government Confirm Move to Force ISPs into Blocking “Adult” Sites
www.ispreview.co.uk/index.php/2016/11/uk...ing-adult-sites.html
As expected the Government has officially announced that Mobile and fixed line broadband providers in the United Kingdom will soon be forced into the mandatory blocking of all “adult” websites; specifically those that fail to offer an adequate method of age-verification for their visitors.
Naturally the Government focuses all of its energy on the word “pornographic“, while the legislation itself tends to prefer the much less specific “adult content” (i.e. open to interpretation and mission creep). We’ve seen in the past how dating websites, as well as sites that support victims of self-harm, social networks, sites that express different political views and medical sites can often end up being blocked because they are deemed to contain “adult content“.
Sometimes I wonder if what limited freedom we have here in the UK is getting flushed evermore down the toilet.

I was able to watch past the librarian scene for ages.

Do you like dark chocolate?
[] Yes
[] No

I think it will be a tinsy bit more elaborate ... and I know a few people who would fail that test.

And here I thought Cameron was bad because he was spineless. What the hell is May thinking with this "eighties-conservative-christian mom against music from hell" law?
