A week ago, we were given instructions by some intelligence officers from the communications regulator to block one of the obscene websites that was publishing adult content and wrong information to the public. As stake holders, we did not hesitate to do as instructed and withing an few minutes, some security policies were implemented blocking any access to the same site by all our customers.
Having worked for an ISP for nearly 3 years now, it never occurred to me that this institution was so significant to national security especially regarding matters of cyber crime and obscenity. I have realized that ISP's can really play an upper role in helping a nation curb such security related issues by merely implementing filters to on-line content that is inappropriate to the public.
Big ups to all the national and private ISP's that were involved in the blocking of such websites.
