kiddie porn on wikipedia

Post by 4days »

A decision by a number of UK internet providers to block a Wikipedia page showing an image of a naked girl has angered users of the popular site.

The blocked page of the online encyclopaedia shows an album cover of 1970s heavy metal band Scorpions.

Internet providers acted after online watchdog the Internet Watch Foundation warned them its picture may be illegal.

in all seriousness the album cover is pretty inappropriate, but censoring something that's been around since 1976 is pretty funny

Just think of it this way: the little girl in that pic is 45 years old now.
