Every home in the UK will have porn blocked by their Internet service provider unless the customer chooses to receive it, Prime Minister David Cameron has announced. 

 

According to the PM, online porn is "corroding childhood." In order to prevent this corrosion, millions of households will be contacted by their ISP and asked to decide whether to activate "family friendly filters" to restrict adult material. Since the blocking is done at the ISP level, all the devices connected to one account will be covered. 

 

Customers who do not click on either option - accepting or declining - will have filters activated by default.

Apparently parents are no longer capable of controlling their own children's access with one of the many commercially available Internet filters, so it will be up to Big Brother.  With almost 6 million closed circuit TV surveillance cameras in public and commercial spaces and an Internet censor in every home, the UK is looking more like 1984 every day.
