- papsosouid 14y agoYep, because if someone claims something might be bad for them, we should restrict access for everyone! By the way, hacker news makes me slack off at work, so I'm looking forward to the law that forces ISPs to block it by default.
- gopi 14y agoI am not worried about the adults but Kids who can now easily access all the pervert filth's of the world (many times accidently). BTB, I am not talking about blocking porn, just users should go through a password wall. Also the users should be able to change this default setting if they like. This is not much different from the password protection for adult content offered by many cable tv companies.
- papsosouid 14y agoYou seem to have conveniently missed the point. What you randomly decree is "filth" and what someone else randomly decrees is "filth" aren't the same. There is no reason to believe that porn is bad, hence no reason for you to be deciding who can access it and who can't. Your position is just as detestable as people who would want access to any non-christian religious material restricted.

- illuminate 14y agoI'm sure that user is just fine with such abuses.
