Due to inborn demand of human necessity or pleasure, from teenage, people trends to pornography. Indonesia realized the matter and blocked 1 million pornographic sites. However, South Korea has found that its teenagers see pornography through smartphones. So the South Korean government wants to install software on teenagers’ smartphones that will block “illegal and harmful information (including pornography and nudity).”

The Ministry of Gender Equality and Family believes that installing the software will block swear words and slang. Besides it will also prevent “cyber-bullying” on social and messaging networks. But to do so, the governmental body will need a compulsory filtering service for mobile carriers that will block “harmful information”.
