(Worthy News) – Legislators in Utah approved a bill on Thursday requiring cell phones and tablets sold within the state to contain filters that block pornography.
HB72 specifies that when a device is activated in the state, it must “automatically enable a filter capable of blocking material that is harmful to minors.”
And the filter is designed to “prevent the user of the device from accessing material that is harmful to minors on the device; enable certain users to deactivate the filter for the device or for specific content, and notify the user when content is filtered.” [ Source: CBN News (Read More…) ]
