Adult Content & Minors
What's your opinion on adult censorship on the internet? Should the Government/ISP's be able to block content deemed inappropriate for minors, or should it be the parents responsibility to monitor their childs activity when using the internet?

I feel it should be on the parents, the government has way more important things to take care of.

It should be the Parents' responsibility.
Even though my Parents worked hard to implement parental controls in their household - I was a sneaky horny pre-teen and was able to get around it lol.
Stumbling on to Tranny porn may have been a mistake/blessing but I definitely don't want today's youth to be poisoned by smut. The Government shouldn't be the ones to block content, it should be the guardian of the minor.
WHADDUP BITCHES!!

Re: Adult Content & Minors
My opinion on this runs counter to my beliefs on almost everything else: minors should not consume pornography.
That said, how could they do it? National log-in IDs? Biometric scanning? Just not feasible- and can you imagine if the government knew what porn you surfed? They can't even protect the CIA operative list- your history would be there for anyone to see.

Parents. If you're incapable of watching over your children, don't have them.

Parents resposibility... additionaly, they make programs that adults with children can utilize to block certain sites or content via password protection.
The Gods will do for no man, what he can do for himself.

Re: Adult Content & Minors
There aren't enough options in your poll, so neither.
The internet should be a relatively safe place for a minor to surf and there are parental controls that can be put in place blocking most pornography. The industry needs to take more control here and ensure that their content and the content they use for promoting reaches only adults. Websites or content providers that fail to register or take the proper precautions should be liable for action to be taken against them (whether from the ISP's, the industry, credit card companies, etc.).
A few years ago all our free content was censored on the sites and that was the temperature of the industry. To remain competitive when other companies weren't doing this we had to be more explicit but we still have warning pages (which carry the netnanny and parental guidance software) which many sites don't use. It's in our interest only to get people to the front door of the sites who are eligible to purchase - so that means adults, who own a credit card or payment method who are interested in transgender erotica. Anybody else is wasting our time and bandwidth.
I'd like to see stricter controls but they should come from the industry, not the government. ISP's have the choice of what they want to do as a business and I support that some will be stricter and others less so.
