So they think they are going to stop porn? Is there a place where I can place a wager on this?

Submited title was: "Every household in England obliged to declare whether they want to access porn".

But it was corrected to actual article title. Might be better to submit with comment than wrong title.

Article title or not, "David Cameron cracks down on online pornography" is not news to me. I know this. But the submitted title was big news. That's why I clicked over and that's why I read the article. Otherwise I would have skipped it entirely.

This is a move to shame those who watch pornography, that you have to ring someone up and say "Yeah, I'm trying to jack off here but for some reason pornhub won't load... Yeah... Uh... I'd like you to remove the porn filter please?"

Meh.

I doubt the Tories have a clean house in this regard. Every time some politician or other 'moral leader' starts pontificating about moral panic, I get suspicious that they're just trying to ban their vice. Clearly if they're so vocally opposed to it, they mustn't be partaking, right?

  Glenn Loury and cocaine.
  Mark Foley and the exploitation of children.
  Eliot Spitzer and prostitution.
  John Ensign and 'family values'.
  Larry Craig, Ted Haggard, countless others and homosexuality.
  The Conservative Party and Back to Basics.

The list of hypocrites goes on and on and on.

This honestly makes more sense as an opt out for parents to utilize for their children...
