except where your exit node is another machine in the UK, or you need faster than dial-up speeds.
How long until this is also illegal?

> I reckon a large proportion of people will opt out HAH! I had a friend one day in tears because her bf had some porn on his laptop. She was shocked, outraged etc. She owned a dildo. Some people have horrific double standards, unless people make a stand against censorship (unlikely) or their desire for porn (even less likely). This is only going to get worse.
In what world is that a double standard??? Enjoying masturbation and sex toys while disapproving of pornography seems like a healthy and reasonable stance to take.
She probably didn't like that he was getting it on without her.

There's a UK ISP called Andrews and Arnold that will give you a filter free experience with the caveat that you have to filter your own network, but they are not really a home ISP as such.
they use openreach. it's possible that openreach will be doing the filtering eventually, A&A have no say.
No, Openreach provide a bitpipe between the customer and ISP. The Internet gateway is with A&A.

#44>> If this extension violates any law in UK, please send me an email at hello@goawaycameron.co.uk and I will be more than willing to comply.
Is this how the law works?
Citizen: "…um…sorry officer, I didn't know that this is illegal"
Police Officer: "…well, if you didn't know…off you go then"

Re: Go away Cameron – Bypass UK's porn filter
#46I'm finding this a bit strange. As far as I am aware you have to opt-in to the porn blocker on existing packages. The chances are its already going to be off for most people, especially those who know how to use a chrome extension. I get the impression that this was created for other, more illegitimate purposes, that has nothing to do with "Cameron's porn blocker"
Nope, it's opt-out for new subscribers and existing subscribers have to choose to opt in or out. There are many reasons why someone would want to use this extension. Sexual abuse support sites are currently being blocked by the filters, so a child being abused by a family member could use the extension to find help on the internet, despite the abuser having the porn filter on. Or a chap who has been pressured into op…
Yeah, I'm aware its opt out for new customers, but its opt in for current customers. I would like to think that the reasons you gave are all mistakes with the blocker that would get ironed out over the coming weeks, especially more likely with the press attention it has got.
Ulterior motives aside, if this saves even a handful of kids from growing up with porn addiction, its probably worth it, right?

Why aren't they a home ISP? They have a product called Home::1 that is only available to home users. http://aaisp.net.uk/broadband-home1.html You have no obligation to filter your own network, but you can if you want. (A satisfied customer)
Well it appears I was a little misguided, I have a friend who uses them as a second ISP purely for office stuff.
He should me 24 hour ping latency graphs once, the network quality looked great.

ignorance does not imply malice.
I don't think it'd stand up in court though.

#50This is interesting and cool, but would be much more interesting and cool if the source code for the extension was available somewhere so it can be easily reviewed.
Is the code up on github or somewhere else?
