I don't think the Government should mandate the censorship of the Web. But I do agree with them mandating ISPs to implement software that helps parents protect their children from illicit content while being able to access it themselves - if they wish.
I'm the CEO of MetaCert and we've classified over 630 million pages of pornography to help companies implement new and better controls to ensure that sites shouldn't be blocked, aren't blocked. The real problem is that existing systems block way too many sites that they shouldn't. What's more, all our consumer products are free - so this isn't a sales pitch.
