Most UK ISPs use the Internet Watch Foundation's advice intended to
block child sexual abuse material.
Circumventing it enables people to access that material.
We can shout CHILD PORNOGRAPHY just as loud as you can shout
CENSORSHIP so perhaps we should both stop now. There are plenty of
valid reasons for a DNS resolver to block some results.
