OLPC laptops being used for Porn

This comes as no surprise nor should it to officials of this program. One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) for those not familiar with it is a program to bring inexpensive laptops to children of poorer countries. Apparently in Nigeria some have figured out how to surf for porn. Big surprise coming from the country that brings us the ever popular "419" email scam. Even with the filters I'm sure they'll figure out the loophole soon enough(just like all kids). Welcome to the new world.
