Comcast Drags Feet Over Child Porn

Comcast is the loan rogue. A month after its peers agreed to the nationwide restrictions, the No. 2 ISP in the country still hasn't signed up, according to Reuters.

The delay from Comcast has prompted the Attorney General's office to threaten legal action against the ISP.

Comcast "has continued to drag its heels when it comes to taking every necessary action to eliminate online child porn from the Internet," Cuomo told Reuters.

Comcast issued a statement saying that it plans to work with the Cuomo's office and will eventually sign the code of conduct the Attorney General has proposed. The ISP also points out that it has previously signed an agreement with the Attorney Generals of 48 states to fight child pornography, according to Reuters.

Still, at press time, Comcast has not green lighted the terms that other ISPs have already agreed to.

Cuomo has issued an ultimatum to Comcast, saying the ISP has five days to agree to the terms of the code of conduct before his office will begin pursuing legal recourse.
