There's a UK ISP called Andrews and Arnold that will give you a filter free experience with the caveat that you have to filter your own network, but they are not really a home ISP as such.

Why aren't they a home ISP? They have a product called Home::1 that is only available to home users. http://aaisp.net.uk/broadband-home1.html http://aaisp.net.uk/broadband-home1.html You have no obligation to filter your own network, but you can if you want. (A satisfied customer)

  Well it appears I was a little misguided, I have a friend who uses them as a second ISP purely for office stuff. He should me 24 hour ping latency graphs once, the network quality looked great.

they use openreach. it's possible that openreach will be doing the filtering eventually, A&A have no say.

  No, Openreach provide a bitpipe between the customer and ISP. The Internet gateway is with A&A. http://aa.net.uk/kb-broadband-realinternet.html http://aa.net.uk/kb-broadband-realinternet.html

Many people think that The Rev is a first class arsehole. Potential customers are warned to carefully research their choice of ISP.

    I could if Google Groups search worked, but it doesn't, so I can't. But there are many threads with him demonstrating his behaviour. People can decide for themselves if they think he's an arsehole or not. He's not the Andy Mabbett level of trolling arse, and he's no MI5guy, but he does have notoriety.

Presumably they still block the sites like ThePirateBay for which court orders have been made? I asked this last time A&A were mentioned, still haven't found an answer, just curious?

  Those court orders tend only to be served against the larger consumer ISPs.
