An example of why an MP needs to access porn for their job?

MPs represent constituents needs, so unless there's some genuine social need for constituents to seek the Gov's help in finding "bongo-flicks", it should be blocked. I work for a financial services company and only odd request we needed to put a "hole" in the proxy filter for was for an investment manager to study some gaming sites to draw up a proposal to invest in them. Pornography, unless you're making it, staring in it or investing in it you don't need it at your place of work.

The problem with pornography is that you rely on the site owners to filter the content and judge it. Some 14 year old runaway found on Sunset Strip and offered $500 to be filmed being "probed" in all her "offices" is illegal in most countries, you watch it you're a party to child abuse. Someone finds out that you watched it on your company machines, it hits the media and next thing your company's name is mud and your investors are pulling out faster than Johnny Sins having done the deed!
