If you think that this is how it will go, you're very naive. If schools and parents can't block porn anymore, prepare for more legislation that blocks porn by default at the ISP unless you pay some kind of fee - like what the UK has proposed. Also look for a return of "content standards" for sites that want to be kept off the "porn list", like the old broadcast TV content standards.

Thankfully I don't live in the USA where asinine things like that would work. Pretty sure there isn't a single school here try and enforce a web filter other than "Let's agree not to visit pages that are not allowed [OK]". I'm hope I'm not naive, maybe just not super-accustomed to the "tHinK oF tHE ChiLDRen"-narrative for pushing filters (or other things) trough.
Maybe they're not from the West, and are just ignorant of how ignorant we are, not naïve.

See you're missing something. If you as the local network operator can't block porn than neither can any intermediate ISP. It's not like they have any more power than you do.
