Quote from: ReedRichards I don't want to see the price of broadband rise for me as a result. Because, like Anotherone, I suspect this is a major project for an ISP.
One way or another this will not be cheap - not only is the implementation cost significant (facilitating selection of service, connectivity being routed differently through to filtering service, addition of connection by connection custom filters), there are also operational and maintenance costs, to say nothing of the inevitable litigation costs when it goes wrong. For it will fail and one day someone is going to sue for compensation, irrespective of the limited liability clauses.
It is not dissimilar to clearing the snow off the pavement in front of your house. It sounds reasonable and sensible, however if having cleared the snow and someone slips on a bit you left behind, you are liable and could risk being sued for compensation because your actions created a false sense of safety / you were negligent in not doing a proposer job. However if you leave it alone and someone slips on it, you have no liability.

Oh, I forgot, the customer service with BT is poorly supported in the main, overseas call centres, prices generally higher, so yes of course they'd make more profit and then screw us even more

Those who are with PN because of the right reasons have enough common sense to jump ship before that happens.
A bit like the BE customers who found Sky were taking over their customer base .....

And how exactly are TT implementing it in practice? Are they doing something as simple as using OpenDNS? I've no idea.
In any case it'd still be quite an expensive thing to implement as previously mentioned.

Quote from: flexo1966 It's got to be the way forward. Turn it on when you want and turn it off when you want. simples
I cannot see an argument in that.
Simply take a look at the evolution of content filtering in the UK to see that in practise. BT started content filtering with Cleanfeed for the sole purpose of blocking child porn (like all noble ideas, they start with good intentions). It's now used to block torrent index sites - WTF!!
No doubt the ability to turn it fully off would slowly erode (in fact, it's not possible to turn off the existing content filtering)
A little bit of censorship is never a good idea. Seriously, try North Korea. It may be more to your liking.

It's never going to be a perfect system I know that, but everybody can have the option to either use it or not.
If your against then don't use....simples.
