the simple solution is educate the kids. the internet has been around for 25+years and only now do some prudes decide that porn is dirty?. because they themselves feel guilty about there own proclivities.
fact is cameron has a personal issue with porn that has nothing to do with protecting children. its about protecting people close to him.
Cameron’s …friend Patrick Rock of some twenty+ years, a three times unsuccessful tory candidate who was Cameron’s personal choice as senior aide in relation to internet pornography filtering, was allowed to resign before he was secretively arrested in early 2014 and he has still not been tried on the child pornography charges on suspicion of which he was arrested.
his porn filters could and will block stories like this. because they wont just block porn.

I have broadband, so my connection stays up as long as the line is stable, I last connected over two weeks ago. I don't make a new connection every time I sit down to use the internet, this isn't the old days of modems and pay-per-minute phone line connections.
It would work in a similar way to how things like BTWifi and TheCloud Wifi works, if the user is unauthenticated, all HTTP requests are hijacked by this ISP and they show the login page. Once the user logs in, the ISP equipment remembers the authentication and lets the request through.
EDIT : just checked and the correct term for this is 'Captive Portal'
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captive_portal
^^ Yeah, I get the technicalities, my point is that once connected, most people simply stay connected. For this to work you would have to log in whenever you actually use the net, then log off again after. People don't use the net that way anymore, the whole point of broadband is that it is 'always on'.
And what if the adults are connected, and the kids want access to do the homework or whatever, you have to drop the connection so they can reconnect on their restricted account. It simply doesn't work logistically with the way we use our connections, especially with people streaming tv and suchlike more now.
I guess you could put the authentication onto the pc's/laptops/tablets/phones and authenticate them when they connect to the router, but that would be quite a feat with the array of devices and OS'es, and why should I install a piece of software I don't really want to access the internet I am paying for, or else they would need to develop special routers just for the UK market that did the device authentication on board.
It's a neat idea, but it just doesn't work for me.
EDIT : Actually, thinking about it, that captive portal method does work at the device level, so I guess it could be made to work. Still not entirely convinced myself, it would need quite an investment in new systems by the isp's.
And how exactly is this going to affect anybody, except the content shooter.(brazzers, realitykings]realitykings[/url],...)? People will still go to free porn sites, where they don't have to anything, besides click on a video that they want to watch.
I understand that they want to protect kids, but this won't do anything.

In fact it won't affect Brazzers or Reality Kings at all because those sites are not operated from the UK.

It will affect them, what the Cameron has said and wants is that all adult sites without age verification will be blocked in the UK, regardless of what country the site operates from.

Blocked from accepting payments? Or blocked from people even seeing them?
Either way it wouldn't affect Brazzers if age verification is easy to introduce because their paying customers aren't children anyway.
I just want to go on a website and watch a gorgeous girl get fucked up the arse and watch her tits bounce, why are they trying to ruin this for everyone lol
The blocking will be very easy to get around.

They aren't trying to ruin this for everyone, they are trying to ruin it for children.
