Net Users To Be Given Anti-Porn Software


Australia's 6 million internet subscribers will be given software to filter out pornography for free under a federal government plan to toughen controls on internet content.
Communications Minister Helen Coonan is preparing to launch the service with an injection of funds into the government's NetAlert online safety agency, The Weekend Australian Financial Review reports.
But the government is reluctant to put its stamp of approval on software that may later turn out to have flaws, so it is leaning towards creating a list of software suppliers for consumers to chose from and making them available on the NetAlert site, the paper says.
