American Airlines to Filter Porn on In-Flight Wi-Fi

American Airlines To Filter Content on In-Flight Wi-Fi
If you're David Duchovny and can't resist watching some online porn on your next flight from N.Y. to L.A. via in-flight Internet access, you may be out of luck. That's because American Airlines' (AA) yesterday announced plans to start filtering Internet content, including adult entertaiment sites on its flights.

AA said it hasn't received any complaints from passengers or flight attendants regarding people viewing inappropriate content on its trial jets, but said that filtering content was an appropriate measure to take to prevent putting its employees and customers in an uncomfortable situation.

We're all for it. The only thing worse than being stuck next to a sweaty guy too big to fit into his seat is sitting next to a guy too big to fit into his seat who is sweaty because of the contents of his browser. [From: USA Today]
