The problem is, the two countries that wish to limit this are a large minority. Sadly the US cannot control the cyberworld, even with the UK at its side. China takes the opposite approach and restricts access to websites.
When is government going to realize that it cannot replace parents? Are they going to diaper, feed, and clothe kids next? Protecting children from television shows and websites that may be harmful is a PARENT's job, not a government. What one parent finds offensive may be perfectly okay to another. Is it MY problem that a parent is too lazy/ignorant/selfish/uncaring/fill in the blank to monitor their brat's activities?
Put the responsibility back where it belongs and stop wasting time and tax dollars on something that will not work. If anything work with the local school districts and teachers to educate parents on THEIR responsibilities once they allow access to the internet. Stop buying the excuse, "Oh, I don't know anything about computers". Then why did you buy one??? If you bought one, you should know something about it OR LEARN.
