the problem they have is that they have a chinease firm who is doing the blocking. and that means one firm has the say on what sites are and not ok.
cameran has also said that page 3 would not be blocked. now this makes life interesting becase such sites as only tease are no more than toplessw, so in theory those sites should not be blocked, and if they are will they have a claim against the isp's?
And if its going on words, sites with words such as Sessex in (sex) could be blocked. So if your running a big website selling non adult goods and even for 1 day your site is blocked, you could loose millions. And would you have a claim against the isp's?
This is not simple.

Yes, indeed and I know this, you know this and everyone who has a clue about how the internet functions knows it but the ridiculous silly government does not and some of them just do what they are told to do no matter what.
I see it as pointless and retarded crap that will hit in both the internet users and the web industry causing nothing but problems. But what can we do about it when they say they are right and they will not change their minds even when solid arguments and reasons by reliable authorities have been given? Also the 99% of the society either do not know about what's coming or they do not give a shit or they actually think this is good and it will save minors from seeing porn.
