Did anyone miss this bit?

"But the LSE could not specify whether these numbers indicated comments from adults or other children."

Am I the only one who found that hilarious?

urgh

My young niece was searching on google images for her school project, and she decided to see what would come up when she typed in her own name. You know what's coming right... Me being the muppet I am hadn't turned on safesearch and we were presented with some rather unsavoury pictures. She just started laughing. :/

twice the average?

When it comes to the comment,"the number of British kids that have received unwelcome sexual comments is twice that of their European counterparts," I wonder how many of those involved the question,"Is it true that British women just lay there during sex?" ;)

Not surprised

Half of British children who've been on line eh? So that will be the male half looking for it then. Doesn't require any poll or study to reach that conclusion.

Any comment on...

how many kids have seen a Penthouse or Playboy, or found their dad's stash of VCR/DVD porn.

Played doctor, "show me your's I'll show you mine" or just peaked in to the girls locker room...

I'm not sure why anyone is surprised about these figures. Kids are curious about sex and there are more than enough sites out there (+ non net sources) for them to sate their curiousity...

Safety & privacy

So basically 51 per cent of the british kids failed the basic safety procedure of not telling strange people with clipboards that they watch internet porn, seems education is lacking a bit methinks.

half and half

Only 50%? They must try harder. 

Alternatively, thats all of them who want to see porn (ie the boys). I wish I'd had the wibbly web when I was a boy. The time saved from looking under hedges for grumble alone would of added up to months.

haha

speeaking as a "UK kid" i can say that 50% is a clear understatement. Figures in the 90%+ range would be more realistic.

INQ Poll

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
