Plan Would Force ISPs To Ask Users' Porn Preferences
The Telegraph , Tuesday, April 24, 2012 3 AM
Under a new proposal that Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt will announce later this year, adults would be asked if they want access to pornographic sites in the wake of growing fears that children are becoming addicted to obscene online material. Whitehall sources confirmed that Mr Hunt had decided against an outright ban although they denied a report that this was on civil liberties grounds. It was also not clear if parents would be asked on every occasion if they wanted to access porn sites, or just once.
