Yet another anti-porn law
Our friends in Utah,USA are at it again… trying to solve their problems by “banning” part of the web….
The governor of Utah is deciding whether to sign a bill that would require internet providers to block websites deemed pornographic and that could also target email providers and search engines.
Late Wednesday night, the Utah Senate approved controversial legislation that would create an official list of websites with publicly available material found to be “harmful to minors”. Internet providers in Utah must offer their customers a way to disable access to sites on the list or face felony charges.
As the title of the article intimates.. they are in fact trying to make “linking” to porn illegal…. I think Google Yahoo etc. etc. are gonna fight this one.. and it will join the other 4,568,342 bits of anti-porn legislation worldwide that get knocked down and binned.
