The proposed government mandated porn filters are not yet active, the filter that is being written about here is actually O2's parental access filter, which is a whitelist designed for parents who want to let kids use a computer unsupervised without any danger of them seeing anything even remotely objectionable. It locks down pretty much everything except a few educational sites specifically aimed at under 12s.</div>

Seems like the UK is really going mad with this filter business. I feel sorry for anyone who has to deal with this issue in the UK, it really seems like your government is doing its best to turn you all into happy little consumers of government (and corporate)-approved content .. I guess we can look forward to fewer and fewer commits from Brits in the near future.<br>
