New ‘Christian Phone’ Blocks Porn

“A new U.S.-wide cell phone network marketed to Christians is set to launch next week,” MIT Technology Review reports.

“It blocks porn, which experts in network security say marks the first time a U.S. cell plan has used network-level blocking for such content that can’t be turned off even by adult account owners. It’s also rolling out a filter on sexual content aimed at blocking material related to gender and trans issues, which will be optional but turned on by default across all plans.”
