How about instead of trying to introduce draconian inappropriate laws that will no doubt be misused to censor other sites the government properly fund the enforcement of existing laws? We already have very effective parental neglect laws and if a child as young as the Childline survey suggests is accessing pornography surely the parents are neglectful?
But of course. I didn't say there wouldn't be an alternative. Newer tech can fill the void and bring bigger benefits. FTTH anyone?
Landline phones and the supporting copper infrastructure should have been thrown out years ago. But we all know how the US and it's little bitch, the UK, love industry more than fast, effective progress for the betterment of society as a whole.
Well what a shame. Dated technology that doesn't do what we want. Of course it's on the way out. And the businesses have no right to survive. If it's a socially necessary utility then the municipality should be running it for the benefit of the citizens (and by some private firm for the benefit of shareholders). Let it die and bring on the new!
