Petition request

That the House of Representatives require Internet Service Providers to filter rape porn, child sex abuse material (CSAM), bestiality, and slavery porn.

Petition reason

Currently it is only voluntary for Internet Service Providers to filter CSAM content. I believe the technology is capable of filtering more genres, like those mentioned above (rape, bestiality, incest, and slavery porn). The internet provides free access to harmful content, which children across Aotearoa New Zealand can access by a simple google search.
