Teenager Cracks Australia's $70 Million (USD) Porn Filter in 30 Minutes

[niko084]

Thats not true. Net porn actually has the ability to educate teenagers about sexual positions, so even their first time they can be (relatively) good at sex and have at least an idea of wtf their supposed to do.

I been checking chicks out since I was 9 and looked at my first pair of naked boobs at 9 (thankyou random drunk girl ) and look at me, I turned out absolutely fine

You know I was the same exact way nurses rears and pulling other fancy little things even at the age of 4.......
But that doesn't mean I should have had a hustler in my hands...

Sure it does, or perhaps its just me and think its far worse for a person to grow up shrouded in cotton wool. The sooner people realise for a large part the world isnt a nice place, the sooner they can prepare themselves and be aware, and as a result, not be a naive wreck taken for a ride easily.

Its not a waste of money at all. I have net nanny installed on my pc as my 5 year old daughter uses the internet all the time to play around in ABC kids etc.....

Just the other week she was playing around and tried to type aunt into google and put a "c" instead of an "a".

Just imagine what would have come up there, she would have just clicked on anything.

Imagine trying to explain that to a 5 year old.........


I think those programs are a necessity when children are using the net. Everyone can have a laugh about it but if its your child having such easy access to HARD core porn. Its only 1 spelling mistake and a mouse click away.

I agree but $70 million USD would you pay that?
$70 million USD

It is if it's a government initivative. As you said, you have NetNanny, which is entirely your choice. Governments need to stop telling us what we can and can not view (at whatever age).

If your parents don't want you to see porn until you are 15-16 then fine, but if they decided to educate you about sex etc. as soon as you are able to understand it (like I was) then that should be fine as well.

The Government has hundreds of FAR more important things to use it's money, but instead it spends it all "politicially".

I asked my mom about where do babies come from when I was 5, and she told me straight up. It didn't "damage" me or anything, I was like oh ok and went off playing. It wouldn't be very hard at all to tell your child how sex works, though I wouldn't want her subjected to it, or pornography.

This is my entire point. It is NOT the governments decision, it is the PARENTS. If your parents want to "shield" you from sex until you are 16-18 then that's their choice, but if they wanna tell you straight up at 5, then again it's their choice.

You want to protect your children go out and get a program that filters stuff, or use the new Parental Protection in Vista. I have my brothers PC set up to filter out ALL stuff like that, and I'm only using XP and it's in built stuff.

The Government has so much more to spend $70 million on.

Speaking of filters what do you guys think of this.... I do not like it and hope like hell its an epic fail!! Us poor Australians. http://www.overclockers.com.au/wiki/Australian_Internet_Filtering

It will only be bad if your not tech savvy alot will get around it no probs and after it slows the net to a crawl a huge backlash will ensure its gone very quickly.

 

[grunt_408]

I hope you are right triprift but in the meantime while we wait for it to crash what will we do if TPU gets blocked accidently

 

[Triprift]

Lol i doubt that would happen mon.

for those of you that couldnt be bothered to read all of that int the link i posted above check out this vid. http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=eXSvzvQC5v0&feature=related

This is to protect those who do NOT want to see pornographic material.
It is perfectly fine if those that do, hack it.

hit it right on the nail. teenagers who want to see porn, will. theres no way to stop that. but the filter is to protect small children from miss-spellings. and hopefully keep the students on task at school, rather than surfing porn.

porn has its place in society, i have nothing against watching a bit of porn, heck i've been known to watch it myself.

a bit off topic, but the perfect place to type this. my stepdad is a programmer, for the last year and a half his company has been trying to hire a person for the help desk. they hire someone, put them on a 90 day probation period. at the 90 day review they pull the internet logs for that workstation. every single person has been fired! they keep finding that these recruits spend half the day surfing porn. the company is very lax on internet use, surf your fantasy football, watch youtube they dont care. but they have a zero tolerance for porn. stop surfing porn at work people. i mean really porn has only one use, and you cant do that sitting at your desk in an office. end rant

Sometimes these things effect you subconsciously. Like the need to have an avatar of Ali G with his fingers up some very young naked girl's bottom.

Hacker of the millennium or what!!

i used to bypass filters in High School back in 99/2000, then i stopped cause some people were getting censured for it.

It's a sad state of affairs when parents are becoming too lazy to take responsibility for the education of their kids, but quite happily allow someone else to do it for them. Not all are like that, but more are.

When more and more 12 and 13 year olds are becoming sexually active, you have to wonder if they have the life experience to truly comprehend the costs of what they are doing.

I take my hat off to you guys who actively look after what your kids are exposed to.
It's not the government's job.

 

[grunt_408]

I caught my 8 year old looking on youtube and google once, he was looking up transformers and ninja turtles it wasnt until I looked up in the history I found he had been typing into google poobum and other nonsense words like that lol!! Ever since then I do not ever turn my back when they are on the net.
