Age Rating for Web Sites
British Culture Minister Andy Barnham invited the governments of the United States and his kingdom to work on a project to create ratings for websites. Such is the care of children who may see something frightening and forbidden on the Internet.
In addition, Mr. Barnham plans to introduce a couple of very entertaining restrictions to the proposed bill. Which concern, for example, providers who will have to provide their services only to “friendly” websites. Or they will be forced to close websites (on which harmful content has been found) for a while. While the nastiness is not removed from them.
So far, the idea of ​​the Minister of Culture looks more like not caring for children. And as a step towards total censorship. I hope Andy Barnham’s strange thoughts will not cause sympathy for either the British or the American government.
