ISPs to get customers to state in verbal or written form whether they want parental control tools; or have controls switched on by default and let parents opt out
ISPs to offer basic parental control functions for free and premium ones at an additional cost
To have adult content filtered by default when parental controls are on and leave other content categories — such as games, alcohol or social networks — to be filtered according to consumers’ preference
ISPs to switch on parental controls at point of sale and help existing customers install and activate services to make adoption of such services easier for parents
ISPs to offer network-level filters, which is less tedious for households compared with installing programmes on individual devices, with ISPs to decide whether they wish to offer device-level controls based on their own commercial considerations
