All this talk about porn is making it very inconvenient to be at work right now.

Not only can your child access pornography along with WarioWare and Guitar Hero; the porn industry is advertising to target those toys.

For Laurn Schroeder, protecting her first grade girls is a priority. "[They're] innocent, and we want to try and keep them that way," she said."

But because the Wii, the PS3 and other game consoles have Internet access, it's easy for kids to access porn.

"It's very upsetting something this popular—a kid game—can go that direction so quickly," Schroeder said.

Young kids get it. In a blog, one child boasted, "The first thing I thought of when I downloaded the Wii browser was also porn."

What's worse: Some porn sites are advertising they are "Wii Friendly." Their screens have been reconfigured to fit the Wii and the Playstation 3.

"That's why it's so important to read into and do research and background checking before you invest in it," Schroeder said. She studied her daughters' Wii to identify the built-in parental controls.

Other parents, however, complain that Nintendo's scheme is unsatisfactory, and that the Wii browser lacks a "cyber-nanny" or filtering function.

For now, the Schroeder girls will keep playing. But their mom is keeping an eye on an industry that she says tricks and targets kids into learning too much, too fast.

"We need to keep them protected from people who want to invade a fun game like the Wii," Schroeder said
"I used to sell furniture for a living. The trouble was, it was my own."

"For now, the Schroeder girls will keep playing. But their mom is keeping an eye on an industry that she says tricks and targets kids into learning too much, too fast."

Which industry?  The porn industry or the game industry?  She probably means the game industry because it's so damn obvious that Nintendo, who makes ZERO INCOME from pornography, intentionally wants kids to become obsessed with sex and thus not buy any Nintendo games because they're too k!ddy.

The porn industry is to blame and kids shouldn't be looking at porn (kind of like how kids shouldn't be using firearms, smoking or drinking alcohol) but I just know there is going to be a "games are evil" slant.  Some people are just anti-fun.  I mean there are fun things that are bad for you but some people take it to the extreme conclusion that fun itself is bad.

She also refers to the Wii itself as a "game".  Severe ignorance of how reality works = FAIL.

So does the internet channel also work under the restrictions of the parental controls or no?

Good question, Smash_Brother.  I have to admit, it should.  Parents should be able to disable the browser (or filter it, but I'd say disable it altogether).  Other than that, this is one of those silly WON'T SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN? articles.
That's my opinion, not yours.

MORE LIKE AMATEUR 666, L2Post N00B.

I imagine there will be parental controls in some capacity in the Opera browser by the time it gets released.

Seeing as to get internet access to the Wii you pretty much need (1) a router or (2) a computer with the Nintendo wireless adapter, if the parents care about filtering their children's internet access then it should already be filtered at one of those two points.

I followed a web crawler here... they always look through some of the most interesting threads ;)

Anyway, it does look like the Porn Industry picked a winner afterall.
two of them actually since they did end up backing Bluray too.

Very old, the news story is months old and was even reported here when it happened. Same thing with PSP filled with porn that is a few years old

Can you actually get a virus on your Wii from browsing a porn site?
