Oh I see good point. I was thinking most public wifi networks would also leave the filter on.
But then again, how does the age verification protect children? I guess they are looking at the initial "impression" (in web semantics, the initial page load and what is shown without age verification).

It proceeds from newspaper headlines to policy announcements generating counter-headlines. The whole thing is driven by "BAN THIS FILTH" arguments in the Mail, Sun and Express. (At least two of which daily publish exploitative photos of women; the Mail has an entire sidebar of not-really-consensual bikini shots of celebrities)
