Uproar in Australia Over Plan to Block Web Sites - NYTimes.com

"Canada, Sweden, the United Kingdom have filters, but they are voluntary.

In the United States, Pennsylvania briefly imposed requirements for service providers to block child-pornography sites, but a federal court struck down the law because the filters also blocked legitimate sites."

So I suppose the filtering in Japan is not quite known to people.

Aussie government's own report trashes 'Net filtering

many good points. I assume that performance degradation is not critical in some countries given that there are multiple European countries that have implemented content filtering. Legal problem is a different beast. It depends mostly on how you present the message telling the end user that a site or a page is blocked on what ground with what level of precision.

I wonder, though, if there some legal problems with just publishing a list of web sites with objectionable contents. That kind of list may be prepared and distributed by a third party NPO (neither a content provider nor an ISP).
