My nearest provider (Vodafone) store is over an hours drive away. I've never particularly considered going there; but even if that is a possibility I'd still class it as "difficult to opt out".
I personally would also feel quite embarrassed going into a shop and having to effectively tell staff I want to look at porn. I don't think I would do it.
- SixSigma 13y agoIf you don't think You're freedom is worth two hour's effort then I rather despair. And you don't have to say "porn please" just "turn off the filter please", I just don't succumb to Cameron and his Daily Mail ilk suggesting it is something to be embarrassed about.
- doctorfoo 13y agoMy only point was that these filters can be difficult to turn off. Please feel free to despair at the large number of average Joes who also won't put in the effort. That's quite the problem. (fwiw, I rarely use my phone for web browsing anyway, and have a nice uncensored VPN connection for my home system)
- DanBC 13y agoThe hoops some people have to jump through to turn off the filters on mobile Internet is disturbing. They shouldn't demand a passport and nothing else will do, or other odd systems of ID. I'm ambivalent about the filters. I think they're stupid and pointless but so long as they're easy to turn off they're okay. They stop idiots calling for worse systems.
