Parents amazed the Internet has porn...

A local Texas news station is warning parents that a broadband-connected Nintendo Wii can be a "porn gateway." "It's very upsetting something this popular—a kid game—can go that direction so quickly," says one parent. Some adult websites have tailored their content to be viewable on the Wii Opera browser, which apparently has some parents up in arms.
Of course, the reporter fails to mention how the parental controls allow parents to either disable browsing completely or restrict which "channels" kids can browse. They also apparently didn't know the porn industry is adapting to the Wii because the console is used by adults, who have every right to view boobies in between bouts of Zelda. "We need to keep them protected from people who want to invade a fun game like the Wii," proclaims one parent. Indeed.
