The Conservative MP Claire Perry, who's been leading a Commons inquiry into online child protection, said she welcomed the moves.
But she said she was concerned it was only for new customers and would not be introduced until 2012.
Sounds like it's not yet the measure that CP is pushing for.

Filtering has overheads, filtering has costs, filtering has mis-blocking.
It should be a business decision to offer or not offer a "family friendly" service, though there does need to be more user education on the subject.

Personally, I would advise anyone that does not specifically require protection, to "opt in to porn", in order to opt OUT of unneccessary filtering that will inevitably screw up!
