Finally, someone who recognizes what this bill is all about. It merely asks ISPs to provide parents with a filtering tool that cannot be overridden by their children because the process of filtering takes place entirely outside the home.
The problem is the state isn't specifying that ISP's provide some software module that the state wrote to accomplish this, instead what they are doing is telling a transport provider they must provide something other than transport, they must provide some unspecified piece of software. It's like if parents required the state provide some piece of hardware to prevent kids from speeding in their cars because the state provides the roads. Geo.
