In response to Stainless Steel Rat: You obviously haven't read the material - 87% reduction was the worst test (but keeps getting spouted). Other successful tests only show a 2% reduction. Like I said - get the truth not the hype. In response to Texinick; if UK ISPs are voluntarily implementing filtering, then that says something. It must be working and of value. As for why filter at all - why do we bother to classify literature and film and prevent certain ages from viewing 'unsuitable' material? Using the same arguement - who decides what is objectional for certain ages? Let's get the parents to do their own classifcation and drop the M and R ratings! It all does start somewhere - but that place does not have to stoop to the lowest common denominator. As for those who fear a moral policing - any civilised society needs to have some form of moral code and base from which to work or there would be chaos. And those chosen moral codes need to be policed one way or another.
