Conservative lawmakers in Utah want to pass a law that would automatically block porn on phones and tablets sold in the state. Lawmakers in the majority Mormon state have previously ordered warning labels on pornography, declaring it a “public health crisis.” The state has historically railed against pornography—and sometimes even considers mainstream magazines and lingerie catalogs offensive.
Phone manufacturers and retailers claimed filters would be too difficult to apply in a single state, and successfully lobbied for a provision that would only allow the bill to be enforced if at least five other states follow suit. If the measure is signed into law, Utah would be the first state to mandate filters on devices. Many critics are already calling foul, claiming the law would violate First Amendment rights. Talk about a Pornsnub!
