Not directly porn related, but we all know how these lists seem to get other things added to them by administrators.

Also a similar law was stuck down a couple of years ago.

When are these #*~^%* politicians going to learn to at least take a look at the current status of laws before they decide to pass that great piece of legislation to fix some perceived problem.

And we all know how well the great Aussie blacklist works.

The state of Minnesota has handed Internet providers a 7-page blacklist of gambling Web sites that they're supposed to prevent customers from accessing, a move that raises First Amendment and technical concerns.
