I think it is about time the internet got professionally filtered by the government / ISPs. Mind you, what gets filtered, in my opinion, would need to be very carefully resolved between people and policy makers in order for it to work well.
I personally support two levels of filtering:
1) Mandatory filtering at a country level, like filtering illegal things like child pornography and the like, and
2) ISP filtering upon request, to the orders of individual customisation and individual preference
That way, there would not need to be so much country-wide filtering necessary so as to hold in jeapordy internet traffic speed, but people that want strict filtering can go to their ISP and request it.
But it needs to be professional, most filter software blocks too many pages to be usable.
