Really? It wasn't as bad as some of the others that I've seen.
When it's nearly unreadable, I'll just go to dev tools and quickly change the background to black or white.

#4What will be extremely interesting is when one of these databases of people who have opted in to receive pornography is leaked. Especially if it contains the names of politicians and other high profile individuals.
I believe that's when the issue of privacy will start to be publicly debated and taken seriously.

It's almost the exact same scheme as Turbo C.

I wonder what will happen if David Cameron is found on that leaked list.

#8I hope it leads to more use of VPN and like. The added advantage would be that your ISP and GCHQ can not easily tap into your online activities, and you'll always have plausible cover of using VPN to hide your pornographic habit.

#9I'm annoyed that all the attention is now directed at Cameron as if this whole thing was his idea. It isn't!
The Daily Mail have been running a very vocal anti-porn campaign for the last 2 years (at least). Forget child-porn, the Daily Mail have taken it upon themselves to rid the country of every sort of porn imaginable and have proceeded to flood the public concious with their weekly anti-porn propaganda.
The funny thing is, when they first started doing this, nobody took a blind bit of notice, the tone of comments on their earlier articles met the subject with bemusement. What's even more surprising however, is that still nobody cares! Read the comments on the most recent DM anti-porn articles and it's clear they're not fooling anybody. So why are they pushing ahead with this agenda?
The blocking of porn (opt-in or opt-out) is not the issue here. It's that we're letting our laws and policies be dictated to us by the gutter press! And that it's working!!

It's probably because the Daily Mail is a newspaper. David Cameron is a prime minister. Those are two completely different things. A newspaper can sit and rant all it wants and be ignored[1] but if an MP/PM says they want to block porn, far more people take notice, likely because it can actually be enacted.
[1] Especially if it's the Daily Mail, a crazy, backwards newspaper nobody takes seriously.
