David Cameron is coming for your internet pornography
- 11 years ago
UK Prime Minister David Cameron is cracking down on internet porn. Starting from January 2014 all broadband internet connections from the UK's four ISPs (Virgin, Talk Talk, Sky and BT) will come with filter technology known as 'default-on' pre-installed.
Default-on will see ISPs block pornography automatically. Only account holders who opt out will be able to access porn.
A puritanical Cameron announced in a Monday speech that he has convinced the big four ISPs to come on board by the year's end, this despite their reservations that such a policy will be difficult, if almost impossible to police.
Critics say the scheme is badly thought out as it will encourage parents to become complacent about their children's internet usage while tech-savvy children will always find a way around such safeguards.
