Protecting from pornography, what hope do we have?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   As a mother of two young children, I try and do everything to protect my
 children from the threat of pornography, especially on the internet.

But what hope do we have when some of the people posting pornography in 
unsuspecting places are the very people controlling and working in the 
UK's internet industry?

Not long ago, a Marketing Manager (I won't mention his name) of UK 
Internet Service Provider Cityfibre Entanet was using a KTM motorcycle 
online forum, not to discuss motorcycles but to display his collection 
of degrading pornographic images.

Unfortunately for him he'd forgotten (or just didn't care) that someone 
had asked on the same forum what he did for a living, so he proudly 
stated his position of Marketing Manager for Cityfibre Entanet and even 
provided a link to the company's website.

Unbelievably, his company seem happy to turn a blind eye to his behaviour and he maintains his position.

Cityfibre Entanet has been awarded government contracts to lay the 
infrastructure for the UK's fibre optic network, so is partially funded 
by the UK tax payers. Surely they should be setting an example and while
 making profits, should also ensure the executives they employ have good
 moral standards!

	What indication do you have that the company has turned a blind eye to his postings, and given that "good moral standards" are in the eye of the beholder, can a company be expected to monitor its staff's social media? Have you made the company aware of your findings? I have seen employees fired for racial comments made online.
