Welcome to
AOL. AOL's new '
big thing' is that their software 'keeps your children from seeing things they're not supposed to'. You can just guess how well it works too... In
britain, ISPs are
subscription-free. Meaning that anyone can have a new
ISP account. Even your darling children. It's a sorry thing that
gullible parents actually
believe this stuff. That they think it's ok for
AOL to be 'Looking after your children
so you don't have to'.
Welcome to
Britain. Here we have institutions like the
BBFC, and the
ITC who make everything in the
world so
inoffensive and
sanitized that even a 5-year-old can use it. I'm glad they protect me from such offensive films as The
Exorcist. Whether I want them to or not. For 25 years. BBFC - 'Exercising your
judgement so you don't have to'.
There are some things that you should have to do; some things too
important not to bother with. What does this say about you that you believe someone who you've never met knows what's best for you better than you do.
Big Brother - 'Running your life, so you don't have to'.
