It reads:

Do not censor the internet. Please rethink forcing ISPs to Block “Adult” Sites.

As part of the Digital Economy Bill 2016-17 the government has officially announced that Mobile and fixed line broadband providers in the United Kingdom will be forced to block all “adult” websites. This is a slippery slope which can be used to force ever increasing censorship on undesirable views.

The bill also introduces a new power that forces payment services (e.g. VISA, Mastercard) to withdraw support from non-compliant sites. The legislation uses the term “adult content” (i.e. open to interpretation and mission creep.) Dating, self-harm support, social networks, different political views and medical sites have historically been tagged as “adult content“.

Whilst it isn't ready yet, it would be better to link to the petition page. (Ie, there is no chance I am signing a petition without reading the text first!)
