Clearly Mozilla is the villain here for prioritising privacy and personal freedom over censorship, control, and surveillance. Oh, our parental controls don't work! WON'T SOMEBODY THINK OF THE CHILDREN! wtf

    Wasn‘t it even the case in the UK that porn is blocked by default on ISP level and you needed to specifically opt in?

    @possum I heard about that, but it's definitely not UK, but Rhode Island I think

    You can still have it

    You need to add your ISP's key to your network as trusted

    Also, you have parental control in Firefox or maybe take control in your hand by setting up your own proxy(or ask ISP to do so which will basically mean the same thing as first)

    They are doing something very good by giving DoH for all and in all ways

    Im more against this idea because DNS is a system level setting and ought to be respected, rather than each app being a special snowflake.

    privacy is a relict of the past.

    @Karunamon if it's not being implemented at the system level, I'd argue that it's okay. IIRC DNS over http isn't standard in any major consumer OS

    Oh no, did this request come from GCHQ?

    @possum the porn ban is indeed a thing in the UK. Though they DNS ban so it sucks. Since i was paying for the internet in a student house a while back I just asked the ISP straight away as not to have awkward moments with other students.

    Also counts for mobile networks. And it's a f-ing pain!

    @IainVM well in India, they've banned it via DNS as well as IP and you can't request ISP to open access to it....

    @gitlog time for a VPN I think.

    @badcopnodonuts porn bans haven't happened in the UK yet although customers of talk talk can have free anti porn controls if they want them. Unsurprisingly very few do, it's an incredibly low percentage.

    The government keeps talking about a National porn ban, but nothing has been implemented yet as it is not popular with the general public who do not like censorship.

    When it's all said and done it's just conservative party moralising.

    I personally hate the 'think of the children,' argument as kids shouldn't even be on the internet. It's not an electronic babysitter after all.
