    There it is. Always protecting us from kiddie fiddlers or terrists

  2. Time to buy shares in VPNs.

    Seriously though why do they even think it’s possible? The main justification is to prevent kids getting hold of porn. Back when I was a kid you got porn via magazines and well worn VHS video cassettes and the only place you could get them at source were newsagents and video rental shops, none of which would sell/rent to a minor. And yet we were still easily able to get our hands on porn.

    If it was unstoppable and impossible to prevent kids getting their hands on it in the days before the internet it sure as hell is a long lost cause now.
