The UK has been pushing laws to censor the internet, from a new angle.
Instead of putting censors on your computer, or having to call the cable provider to block the things you don't want, they are approaching it the opposite way.
All cable providers will now block pornography, and the likes, automatically, unless you call them up and specifically request access to it.
And now, Joy Smith, a Canadian politician, is pushing for these laws to come to Canada.
Personally, I think it is a great idea to protect kids this way, by not allowing the stuff into the house, unless specifically requested...
But everyone knows that Daddy is going to get that added into the plan, the first week that Mommy goes away for business...and once its in the house, we are back to square one.
Daddy's excuse?
"I have no idea how that got there."
I've heard it'll effect forums too. So basically yeshiva world's coffee room would be blocked.
ReplyDeleteWhich in the big picture, makes sense to be blocked (forums).
