(Image: Shih Wei Wang / EyeEm) A Utah lawmaker is looking to keep children from accessing pornographic material on cell phones and tablets with a new bill. FOX 13 reports Rep. Susan Pulsipher (R-South Jordan) recently introduced HB 72 during the House Public Utilities, Energy, and Technology Committee. It would require cell phone and tablet manufacturers to sell devices in Utah with content filters to block objectionable material already turned on. That content is aimed specifically at pornography. As Pulsipher explained when introducing the bill, she spoke of an acquaintance who had been exposed to porn at an early age. She claimed it had affected him throughout his adult life, following him through marriage and becoming a father.
