    ACLU challenges Utah porn blocking law

    http://www.acluutah.org/pr060905.htm



    Its about time, if you look at the text of the law, its extremely archaic and authoritarian.

      Utah sucks. And they are doing this without the benfit of .XXX. You know damn well once .XXX comes they'll make ISPs block those. Why doesn't someone tell them the internet wasn't made for kids and if they care about kids so much tell them to tell parents in Utah to actually PARENT their kids and quit asking the government to do it for them. Who in the fuck are they to tell me what I can allow to come into my home or not.

        Less than 10% of parents with children have filtering software installed. Until that number is far over 90, I don't see how this is anything but parental irresponsibility.

              I'll bet it's far less than 10%.

                they will never pass this hilarious law, that's a fact. On another note who was the internet made for?
                SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                  The internet was built on porn, spam, and warez, but its been going more legitimate lately.
