As we speak, there is a proposal from the opposition in the Australian government (Australia, not Austria!) to make ISP-level filtering mandatory. If it passes, the default setting would keep all adult content out. If a subscriber wants to receive it, s/he will have to call their ISP to have it allowed through.

I mentioned this to several ICANN staffers. No matter the internal ICANN politics, they understood the significance of making people announce their intention to receive adult products, and could only shake their heads at the thought.
