Green Dam filtering into computers

Controversial Internet filter Green Dam will be included with some PC packages sold in China, despite a decision to delay the software's launch.

"The Green Dam porn filter will be included in all PCs participating in our August promotion, which targets students and their parents," said Wu Shaodong, an Acer sales representative in Beijing.

Wu believed the free porn filter would make Acer PCs more appealing to parents who want to protect their children from harmful content on the Internet.
