Barring kid access to porn on phones

This is a sign of things to come in the US, as more and more children use cell phones. The Australian government is tightening regs so that porn won't reach children using mobile phones, Australian IT reports. The FCC's counterpart in Australia, the Australian Communication Authority, will now regulate access to content on the new 3G (3rd-generation) phones with high-speed Net access (to all of it - text, images, sound, video). "The new access controls will cover text messages deemed to be 'of an adult nature' on new phones ... and other audiovisual content with MA or R ratings. Content classified X or which is refused classification will be banned from the premium mobile phone services."
