Aihe: Re: [unSYSTEM] UK Prime Minister David Cameron Announces That Filters Used to Block Porn Will Also Block Websites Espousing "Extremist" Views in Order "to Keep Our Country Safe"

Jokes aside, this actually looks like a major shift into a police state.

Which might not actually be a bad thing, we've had a constant erosion of
our freedoms, but blocking porn might just push everybody over the edge.
