BT Blocks 10,000 Child-Porn Site Visits A Day
jb.hl.com writes "The BBC is reporting that British Telecom, the predominant telecommunications company in the UK, is blocking 10,000 attempts to access child pornography a day. In the first three weeks of the system being operational, BT allegedly blocked 250,000 attempts to view such pages. They apparently have no idea how many of these hits were accidental, or caused by malware. The block affects 2.5m of BT's customers. Pierre Danon, chief executive of BT Retail, said with regards to privacy concerns that "we don't know their motives or who does it and honestly we don't want to know"." onion2k reminds us that we first mentioned the block in June.
That is very scary to see, there are more paedophiles in the UK than we think..... Baz
Yes, you notice nobodies tracking the disgusting habit of young children to look at images of fully grown adults. There should be some sort of tracking going on to try and nip this gerontophilia outbreak in the bud!
(okay, so it'd probably be funnier if I could have found the paraphilia for "prepubescent attraction to an adult", but gerontophilia will suffice)
All I know about Bush is I had a good job when Clinton was president.
