UK Government Wants "Unsavory" Web Content To Be Removed

Posted by samzenpus on from the won't-somebody-please-think-of-the-children? dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The UK minister for immigration and security, James Brokenshire has called for the government to do more to deal with 'unsavoury', rather than illegal, material online. 'Terrorist propaganda online has a direct impact on the radicalisation of individuals and we work closely with the internet industry to remove terrorist material hosted in the UK or overseas,' Brokenshire told Wired.co.uk in a statement."

  1. Der Führer would be laughing. by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Every time I see criticism of the US by someone in the UK I just
    laugh. The US is a paradise compared to the UK, which is a living hell
    and a police state.

    What a sad little has-been of a country.

    And it's getting worse every year.
