Cameron's porn ban coming into effect?

[ifross]

David Cameron was pushing to block porn by default in the UK. I live in London and my internet has been down for the last 48 hours (I am with Sky Broadband).

This is the first screen that I have been presented with after being reconnected. After all the recent news (NSA saying they will discredit people with their porn habits) is it too far-fetched to think this is part of a government scheme?

So what's the difference between the PG - suitable for everyone, mode, and "I don't want any online protection"?

You'd think they are one and the same thing, but it doesn't sound like it. The PG stuff is still filtered? Because if that's the case, I fear most people will only choose one of the 3 main modes, but will still get their Internet filtered (say for stuff like TPB, or Snowden leaks, or whatever).

This is what PG blocks: Social networking Online gaming Cyber bullying Pornography and adult Suicide and self harm Weapons, violence, gore & hate Anonymizers, filesharing & hacking Drugs and criminal skills Dating Phishing, malware & spyware

If you choose "I don't want any protection" then it gives you the choice of what filters you want
