Had a v interesting chat on @BBCWomansHour with @MariaMillerUK and @Kate_Isaacs (who's doing sterling work holding Pornhub accountable). We talked a bit about child safety and porn, so here's a thread of helpful ISP tools for parents.
I mention this because any action the government takes on porn will never (can never) be as effective as parents + carers taking the time to educate your children and block sites on your home network.

There are loads more! Whoever provides your internet should give you the tools to block certain types of site (and individual sites). Take time to explore it in lockdown if you're worried.

Mobile ISPs have them too. Vodafone: vodafone.co.uk/mobile/digital…
O2: parentalcontrol.o2.co.uk
EE: ee.co.uk/help/help-new/…
+ more. Go look on your ISP's website, find the content controls, have a play.

Final link: @jizlee's fabulous article 'Ethical Porn Starts When We Pay For It' - medium.com/@jizlee/ethica… I think in the interview I said that I don't think 'free porn' tube sites can ever truly be run ethically. Jiz explains how you as a consumer can make a difference.
