(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Well I'm almost certain I've made this thread before but well here it is again.

Turns out our one and only saviour David Cameron really is determined to block access to pornographic material in the UK by default. In the news recently we've seen all sorts of chitter chatter from him to the ISP's and vice-versa but really nobody thought this would actually go through.

For one reason him and the ISP's were pretty much at war over the issues and the ISP's explaining that they already offer filters for this kind of block and perhaps people should be further encouraged to use them rather than inconveniencing the whole of the nation to "protect" the children. But no, Mr Cameron won't stop there he is intent on misleading people as shown in a letter to the ISP's leaked last week (viewable here: You must login or register to view this content.) in which he calls for the Active choice filters to be rename to default on thereby misleading customers all together.

My main reason for opposing this is that it's just a form of censorship where the government decides what I can and can't view which I find despicable and a complete violation of my freedom of choice. But What pisses me off more is that Mr Cameron expects people to take an active roll in voicing that they want porn. Now I'm 21 and look at porn as much as the next guy but my old man is the one that pays the internet bill etc. and deals with the ISP. I have to somehow approach him and tell him don't let Sky push these filters on you without explicitly stating that it's to do with porn. Now how many self respecting people ever what to discussing anything to do with porn with their parents. Fucking none, I don't want to phone up the ISP and be like "Um yeah hi I'd like some porn please could you sort that out..."

Though what in fact concerns me more is that sites I visit on a daily basis that contain SFW and NSFW sections will simply be banned altogether instead of only parts being banned. I imagine the situation for many British members on this site will be similar to mine or perhaps worse if you are under the age of 18.

So lets get the hate train started, also the most recent article and the one with the most overwhelmingly negative response is (You must login or register to view this content.)

Also to get around this I just bought a VPN, It really fucks me off though that David Cameron thinks this is acceptable I mean it really really really fucks me off.

Not even sure what the hell he wants to do David Cameron. I was reading it just child porn , which is already blocked :/

all UK brahs better start downloading all that you can now

In regards to child porn, David Cameron has no idea what he's talking about. He wants to ban search terms from google which shows just how fucking ignorant he is. Nobody in there right minds searches for CP on google they'd use the TOR network. Google already does enough to combat the spread of child abuse images and takes them down when it can David Cameron wants to get the mass public behind him by doing something that sounds great but effectively does nothing and just wastes money.

Also he grossly underestimates the proportion of highly technically literate paedophiles. He thinks it's only a very small minority of people that would use a VPN or know how to use the TOR network but in actually fact that's most of today's teenagers not a select group of paedophiles.

He assumes ever paedophile is a Jimmy Saville old man that looks up child porn on goolge and tries to get an inappropriate touch of a child at every given opportunity. After spending much time on the internet and brushing shoulders with pedos on sites such as 4chan you begin to get a feeling that at least 3/4 of people that search for child porn are not interested in fucking a real child nor would ever try to and would simply be satisfied looking at porn. It's like trying to claim that every person that watches porn will at some point want to go out and rape a woman, it's this kind of mass ignorance on the topic that the government use to their advantage to inform the masses and scaremonger people into thinking that automatically a paedophile = a child molester and rapist which is not even remotely the case.

I mean if he tried to globally ban porn because of two high profile rape murder cases in which the accused had looked at violent porn before carrying out the attack people would just be like, yeah well shit happens but that's 2 out of a few million but because it's children everyone reacts completely different and gets behind mass censorship and porn blocks.

I just don't understand the government, this country really is run by a complete tech illiterate fucking moron that doesn't listen to all the people saying this won't work and it's a bad idea (Fucking even the ISP's are saying that, but it's like he just thinks it will work) and a waste of money. The only people that fucking want this are brain-dead tech illiterate parents that are to lazy to take an interest in their own childs browsing habits and womyn that want porn banned anyway.

Time to purchase Elite.
Lets hope David Cameron doesn't go through with this. He might be basing this decision towards them recent rape cases but, David Cameron is very narrow-minded.

I saw this earlier, biggest load of bullshit ever.

Good job I have a trusty VPN, this has really pissed me off.

Ya, why is child porn blocked? Damn government.

:lol:

Time for UK people to get some sun and get a girlfriend!

A petition has already been made with the aim of stopping this censorship from going any further:

If you're a UK resident make sure you sign it, it already has 5000 signatures.

They can try, but they will almost certainly fail. They censored Pirate Bay and people found a way to use it again. The UK govt are so stupid :vince: a child could circumvent these blocks.
