Interestingly, nobody has mentioned on the list what the offending content is yet. Or why this would even remotely be a good idea.
Quoting the article http://publicaffairs.linx.net/news/?p=497 "At present, the government does not propose to require UK ISPs to block content and our policy is to pursue a self-regulatory approach wherever possible.
