Derpatz – I don't support censorship for any reason. Making us a better internut? And trivialising Mark's name because of things posted on a Fido BBS 17 years ago is hardly adding to the discussion?
richary, EVERYONE supports censorship, it's just that people rarely ever agree on what should be censored.
I've amended my post which included Ye Olde LTUAE endearment I mostly used to let him know who I was (and you know full well what I was called in return :)) ... I didn't realise such things were that precious around here but will keep it in mind for the future.
As for the filtering issue, the sad state of affairs is that because of declining values and apathy far too many people ARE leaving it up to the Goverment to do everything for their children short of giving actual birth to them.
You should be blaming those lazy (etc, etc) poor examples for parents (etc) along with the seriously depraved out there for creating the situation whereby the slightly less lazy but certainly well meaning folk want something done about this nasty internut thing wot they barely know the first thing about anyway.
You and I and probably most of the more 'puter savy folk around here know full well that what ever the ignorant government folk try to inflict upon us, a way around it will soon be found and in all probability an improvement that favours the common user will be achieved.
I see this all as a win-win as well as also quite a bit of a much ado about nothing.
Certainly nothing for any of us to get that much in a froth about.
