There's no source cited in the linked article other than The Daily Mail. For the unfamiliar, they're a British 'news outlet' who are notorious for writing articles that grossly misinterpret source data, to forward their own agenda.

- justincormack 14y agoCNN citing the Daily Mail is not a more reliable source than the Daily Mail.
- TDL 14y agoIn the article that I linked an adviser for the Interior Minister is quoted. Your down vote (assuming it was indeed you who down voted) is unmerited.
- uvdiv 14y agoHow about the Interior Minister's own website? http://ogmundur.is/annad/nr/6578/ http://ogmundur.is/annad/nr/6578/ (In Google translation) he says porn is already illegal in Iceland (which it is [1], punishable by prison), and he's advocating more enforcement of this, with police resources.

- icebraining 14y agoThat a minister would like it to be law doesn't mean Iceland "may soon" adopt it, at least for any reasonable interpretation of the expression. Mr. Jonasson isn't even part of the legislative branch, and his party is only the third in the Parliament.
