Internet censorship - do we live in a third world country? What are the consequences of the inter filter re speed etc, will slow down are current broadband services? If so, that is a massive backward step. Do you really think a filter would stop undesirables getting access to things that you want to stop? They could just point to an overseas proxy server that is encrypted, and you wouldn't be able to control them. There are plenty of applications available that people can use to help protect children etc, but perhaps children should be warned and even watched while on the internet. Internet services are slow enough in this country already, without the filter!
