Utah Wants To Give ISPs That Filter a "G-Rating"

Posted by kdawson on from the there-goes-sundance dept.

An anonymous reader writes "HB407 in Utah would create a child-friendly designation for ISPs that block out a range of prohibited materials. Google, Yahoo, and others are fighting the bill, but Rep. Michael Morley says, 'I think it's a positive thing for those who are looking for a site that is dedicated to fighting pornography.'"

    If you ban porn, kids in Utah will just find a way to whack off to Veggie Tales.

    Is this the same Utah that voted twice overwhelmingly for the endless war and torture candidate?

    The above statement isn't trolling ... it's just stating the obvious. Sure, torture and war are perfectly acceptable, but sex? That's bad!

    Except if your name is Warren Jeffs and then it's OK to have sex with underage girls.
