What's next?

I'm all for this, 100% but I have to worry about what's next. Once ISP's start filtering out content, it can only snowball into complete censorship.

Re: What's next?

we'll end up somewhere in the middle. The middle is where the problem will be though, ISPs will solicite money from sites for some kind of preferred vendor status, otherwise your site content may deemed unacceptable for content that the site may carry.
My Orwellian thought for the day!

As long as it does not balloon out to other stuff like extreme violence, political opinions, etc.

mostly they just block the media based newsgroups for movie downloads.

i honestly see this as part of the war on piracy cloaked in protecting the children.
