McDonalds has begun blocking all pornographic content on its public Wi-Fi services, reports The Verge<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This follows two years of sustained pressure from advocacy group “Enough is Enough”, who were concerned about giving unfiltered internet access to children and families.<\/p>\n

“I’ve asked Starbucks employees whether they’ve had problems with customers in stores watching porn, and they’ve said, yes, that they sometimes have to tap customers on the shoulder,” Donna Rice Hughes, head of Enough is Enough told the New York Post<\/i><\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Enough is Enough admitted that McDonald’s “wasn’t aware of any pornography related incidents in their stores,” but Rice Hughes\u00a0applauded<\/a><\/strong> the company \u2014 which first introduced filtering capabilities on its Wi-Fi networks earlier this year ahead of the porn ban \u2014 for its “act of corporate responsibility and commitment to children and family safety.”<\/p>\n

There is no word yet as to when the planned blocking will begin.<\/p>\n
