This new law forces ISPs there to blacklist all sites dictated by their government that are "harmful to minors". Also, content providers that host sites for profit in Utah, USA, must rate their sites, or face criminal charges.

All I have to say about this, is "yikes". I thought that China was the only country whose government would stoop to something like this, but now the US is going that way.

People who don't understand the internet shouldn't be creating laws for it.
