It is controled by the internet boddies. The problem is finding the sites. I think the criteria are:

Mass SPAMMING
Illegal material
Certain contries

So bomb making sites should be blocked from all UK, US, EU, etc web ISP's. The problem is that if you wanted to get to one of these sites you just need to dial a middle easten ISP and go via their servers.

A measure needs to be put in place underwitch sites that have terrorist angles have to be deleted or the machines will be confiscated. This will require ALL the countries in the world working together (how much chance have we got for that?). Also some type of Net police would be needed to look for and kill these sites. A lot of money and co-operation would be needed. One day...

ok thanx...

Is this list expandable??? So if a new site was found that could be bad, like bomb making sites, all that nasty stuff, could those be blocked too??

Someones got to start the ball rolling.... the more ISP's that block them, the less these fanatics can learn from them.

I believe that our dial up firewall blocks the black listed sites that we are required to by law but there is no other measures in place.
