She said half of British kids use the internet alone - but only three per cent of porn sites require proof of age.

So, Millions of kids use the internet, okay I'll buy that.

The majority of porn sites do not require POA okay, still with it.

Inference - Millions of kids can watch porn? - If they look for it...

Children as young as eight are accessing porn. Something needs to be done now


Educate the sodding parents/carers then. Kids are like barely tamed wild animals, if possible, you should always keep an eye on them and what they are doing. The internet is not a substitute carer/nanny.

At another level, educate your god damned kids about stuff. Jeez.

GFT o.o couldnt of said it better my self, i asked my brother what was he explained, i asked my dad what was, he explained, so as a kid i never searched around for porn o.o if parents stop treating it as a taboo subject and are better educated there is the theory that there will be less teen births Holland is a good example of this theory in action after having one of the lowest teen birth rates in Europe, and there open about and simply say "wait till 16 (or what ever there age is) use protection then you can do what you want x) (i know several family's from Holland and there all pretty much like this)

No. 1 rule for teens

I sure am glad I never saw a naked female until I was 18 years old. I mean what sort of life would I have had if I had been corrupted by images of sex...no chance at all for a normal life!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/378850/2992126.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/378850/2992126.page GMT Biggest disaster ever! This shouldn't be legal. It's damaging an industry that employs thousands, and goes against the freedom that Britain prides itself of having. In fact, is it legal to force independent companies to comply by these laws? Ham-fisted attempt to control the internet.
I mean, it doesn't bother me because I won't be able to access the stuff, I've gone past the stage of teenage hormone driven curiosity, but it irritates me beyond belief to think that the government could be so arrogant and hypocritical. There's definitely some ulterior motive, there's no way they can possibly monitor connections to have any sort of reliable data.
All that said, I understand parents motivations to try and protect young children, but this too heavy handed. Firstly, it should be an opt-in system. Parents should be able to contact their ISP and have this enabled for their household, however, they must provide proof that their child is under 14. Why 14? Well, it's a suitable age for them to be able to experience it through media long before they are able to actually do it.

Very personal rant over.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/378850/2992197.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/378850/2992197.page GMT Biggest disaster ever!
However what confuses me in all this, is what do the goverment seriously expect ISP's to do?

The kind of sites they are referencing aren't the issue, as most require credit cards or such to get onto anyways. The issue is the many free sites, either TGP style ones, video and such which stream stuff for free and everything else in between.

So how do they think ISP's can block them. Some kind of mature content filter over the entire UK net?

Well thats fine, but what about sites I'd go to like Deviant art or Elfwood, which have a small percentage of soft porn related art on there, but would get caught up in a filter ban, if it was similar to say the average work block system.

Seems more like the goverment making a big bold statement, and then doing nothing. Which sadly seem par for the course so far for them on any issues of importance other than cuts and taxing us to the hills.


edit - in fact thats what this smells like, pass a law that is nigh unenforcable for the ISP's and then start fining the pants off them when they can't comply to get more cash in the coffers, and our monthly fees will go up as a result. Nice one Dave, everybody wins.

How will they know who is a child and who isnt? If you just have to confirm your older than 18 then children will find out and lie.

Where it matters yes, I wont lie to people. But 18 certification is largely ignored and is not considered being dishonest. I watched enough 18 certificate films underage, if I was a 17 year old, or even much younger I would want to see the Skyrim rumours and trailers. I was asked my age on the link on the thread that mentioned the cloth map with pre-order Skyrim. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/378850/2992488.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/378850/2992488.page GMT Re:Biggest disaster ever! ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/378850/2992493.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/378850/2992493.page GMT Re:Biggest disaster ever!

That all requires porn to have no affect on it whatsoever. It isn't illogical to suggest that porn could contribute somewhat to underage sex due to kids watching it and then wanting to do it, the same way flashy adverts make them pester their parents for the latest piece of tat that flashes and makes noises for a few minutes before it inevitably breaks/is broken.

That would, of course, require a study, which, due to the nature of it, could have an affect on the results. Having to tell the big guy with a beard in a white coat every time you whipped out your sausage on bigbewbz.com and then went over to your friends house and played ametuer pornstar with her could deter participants somewhat.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/378850/2997060.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/378850/2997060.page GMT Biggest disaster ever!
