It makes sense...

I don't usually get into politics here -- but I found something I actually agree with.. The Senate passed a bill to conduct "advanced blocking" study..

Now at first glance you might go: nnnnnnooooooooooooooooo!

Here Me out: the bill is designed to give parents greater control over content instead of trying to do this through the telcoms.. In essence, it's giving parents additional tools to help filter content at home instead of making all of us conform to THEIR ideals..

Which is the way it should be..

Because I don't think it's appropriate for children under the age of 18 to look at our website or My blog.. It's a level of personal responsibility across the board - then let individuals decide what they want or don't want on their internet coming into their homes..

So as long as this bill remains at the parental level, and not at the ISP level -- then I'm cool with it.. It's when we try to spread the wide blanket out for ALL users across the board that I have a fundamental problem with it..
