http://www.al.com/news/birmingham/index.ssf/2017/04/porn_filter_bill_set_for_publi.html
A public hearing is scheduled for Wednesday on a bill that would require sellers of computers, cell phones and other devices that provide Internet access to have a filter to block pornography. It is not just Alabama, but 13 states with GOP legislators pushing for this bill. http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2017/04/11/anti-porn-warrior-behind-the-porn-filter-bill-has-a-tangled-legal-history.html Conservative lawmakers in over a dozen states are pushing a bill that would force consumers to pay a ransom to access pornography. The Human Trafficking Prevention Act, if passed, would apply a pornography filter to any device, from laptops to cellphones to routers, that connects to the internet—and would levy a $20 tax to remove it from each one. The bill mandates all manufacturers of internet-connected devices maintain separate, 24-7 call centers to make sure obscene material is appropriately labeled. It popped up in SC back in December http://www.goupstate.com/news/20161217/bill-seeks-to-put-porn-block-on-computers-sold-in-sc --- an aspirin the size of the sun. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Hypothetically, were this bill to pass, how long do you folks think it would take for the internet to devise a workaround? A day, a week?
Also, I wonder how they would get this onto computers; would it simply be installed on phones/prebuilt computers, or would it be loaded directly into operating system software? --- People are prone to dying. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Keeping porn out of kids' hands is the responsibility of the parent. I thought the "party of personal responsibility" and "small government" would be for less government intrusion into citizens' daily lives and nanny state rules.
The human trafficking shit is just there to paint detractors of this bill as supporters of human trafficking and giving porn to children. --- http://i.imgur.com/hslUvRN.jpg When I sin I sin real good. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I feel like this would be easy to get around. And it's not like these Republicans would be smart enough to make it illegal to do so, since they clearly have no idea how technology in general works.

I agree with actively blocking child pornography if there is a realistic and practical way of doing so (there isn't), but allowing people to pay $20 to regain access reveals this bill for what it really is.

Remove USC 1466A, entirely. When pedos can jerk off to cartoons (or sculptures or paintings, whatever), it lessens the demand for actual CP with actual children, and may even make what's left easier to find and prosecute when the remaining marketplace is essentially forced to consolidate. ...

Meh, I'm all for it. Removing degeneracy one step at a time. There should be an equivalent, and expensive tax for filmmakers adding graphic sex scenes in their films, like what's in Game of Thrones and other shit like that. I'd ban it altogether but a high enough tax that discourages it is fine too.
