Re: Bureaucratic nightmare for an ISP

said by vpoko See Profile:

Well, they don't really have to maintain a list of IP addresses. The government supplies them a list of URL's and they can just block those URL's at the DNS level. If someone wants to access a porn site by typing in its IP address, that's technically different from the using the URL.
I'd be pretty pissed if my tax dollars were going to paying people to maintain this list. This list would have to be ungodfully long and exhaustive to do any good at all.
If I as a consumer don't want porn I simply just don't browse to that porn site. If I do want porn than I do. If I have kids that I don't want browsing to said sites I go and get some software to do it. If there's a big enough market for this then ISP would be happy to do this for a fee. If there isn't then why should the government subsidize something there's no market for?
