At long last, it appears the UK government's porn blockade has been sunk. The government missed another deployment window in April of this year. Karl Bode reported the government was considering saying the hell with it it all a couple of months later.

It claimed it just needed an indefinite amount of time to bring its porn filter into compliance with EU law -- something it had years to do but apparently only took into consideration at the last minute.
