>A South Carolina politician is hoping to stop computer owners in his state from viewing pornography.
>State Rep. Bill Chumley, a Republican from Spartanburg, told his hometown newspaper that his Human Trafficking Prevention Act would require manufacturers or sellers of computers or other devices that access the Internet to install digital blocks to prevent the viewing of obscene content. Blocking websites that facilitate prostitution would also be required, he said.
>If a purchaser wants the filter lifted, he or she has to pay $20 to have it taken out—provided the person is over the age of 18.

UK has the same thing and unlike the UK, this will only affect South Carolina and not the other states.
I hope this gets knocked down by the state supreme Court or the federal supreme Court before it spreads.

The faggot OP failed to put in his summary that this is just an idea and it'll probably conflict with the first amendment. Plus it said "digital block" so I don't see how a simple reformat and install will circumvent this.
Wasting tax money on unconstitutional laws.

>muh family values
It'll start at $20 and then they start getting greedy because anyone can afford $20.

Porn is extremely bad for society. It lowers the sex drive of young males. It creates a false image of what actual sex should be like. It is one of the major contributors to erectile dysfunction.
Porn is dangerous and needs to be stopped.
Note the name of this proposed bill. He's deliberately lying about the extent of the bill to make it seem like it's only about human trafficking. The money they would get from this law would go to the South Carolina Attorney General.

Hey buddy, prohibition doesn't work. It's a waste of time and money.

Computer manufacturers probably wont comply with the order anyway. Most devices already have parental locks to begin with, there's no need for SC to get their own special snowflake shit. What is SC even going to do if they don't comply?
>>58083690
maybe but banning it will just make people want to get through the prohibition
How would I protect my Lolis
Fucking GOP. Trump just won, can you fuckers stop reminding people that you're the party of Jesus Freaks?
