Starbucks says it'll block porn on its public Wi-Fi next year

For years, Starbucks has caught flak for not preventing its customers from watching porn on its in-store Wi-Fi. Now the coffee retailer says that next year it will introduce a filter that prevents customers from viewing porn and other explicit material in stores, as first reported by Business Insider.

[...] This week, Enough Is Enough CEO Donna Rice Hughes said Starbucks had failed to protect its customers and follow through with its plan to block explicit content. "By breaking its commitment, Starbucks is keeping the doors wide open for convicted sex offenders and others to fly under the radar from law enforcement and use free, public Wi-Fi services to access illegal child porn and hard-core pornography," she said.

A petition from Enough Is Enough said that public Wi-Fi networks "are attracting pedophiles and sex offenders" and put children at risk.

    We're very proud of FOSTA. Otherwise known as SESTA. Our guys in Congress worked very hard on that one. I did a big beautiful signature on that one -- one of my best. I'm very proud because it's a PROMISE KEPT. One of many.

    We love the children, don't we love children? They're very special. There's nothing in the world like children. You know it. I know it. And Enough is Enough knows it. They know. And they know you know. They know I know. And they know that I'm the only guy that can make our internet great again. We're losing so many children to internet. So many beautiful young lives. And I signed, very beautifully, the Children's Internet Safety Presidential Pledge. Lyin' Ted didn't sign. Crooked H didn't sign. But, I signed very proudly. I promised to make our internet very Child Safe. I did the Pledge. And they put my signature on the internet. On the website. Where, by the way, it looks amazing. I don't want to brag, but it looks great on there. Working hard, folks!!!! enough.org/objects/EIE-prespledge-signedtrump.pdf [enough.org]

    (cont) By the way, we love Donna Rice Hughes. Otherwise known as Donna Rice. But, not in a sexual way. She's a smart, and very sexy lady. As everybody knows. But we didn't have "sex" with her. We didn't kiss her. She didn't go "sailing" on our yacht. And, she didn't come to any of our parties. Or after parties. Fortunately. Thank you, Donna!!!!
