FOI Request Reveals UK Houses of Parliament Workers' Passion For Adult Content

Anita Hunt (lissnup) writes "Hot on the heels of Dave Cameron's demands to make such content universally 'opt-in,' the Independent reports 'Westminster computers were prevented from accessing sex sites 114,844 times last November alone and on 55,552 in April, while February saw just 15 and in June officials blocked 397 attempts.' No explanation has been offered for the variation, although it would be interesting to know if the fall in the number of recorded/reported attempts coincides with the date the FOI request was filed."

    Why on earth does this make the frontpage? Who cares about the Soviet Republic of Great Brittain? More cameras than the KGB could ever imagined, and the right to detain innocent people without lawyers or judicial oversight. I hope that rotten country gets to see the effects of Global Warming soon.
