Good, might stop the creepy fuckers watching it in parliament..
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/neil-parish-banged-up-tractor-porn-b2439583.html (I also remember and was going to link an earlier and unrelated report that was done about MPs watching porn in parliament, but that one story has drowned out all other results and it's too early for me to dig deeper)
In all seriousness, this is obviously a terrible idea for many reasons.
They would just exempt themselves from it as they did with both reporting on people accessing porn using the HoP network and with the investigatory powers bill.
When they did report on it, it was a shockingly high number for a place of work: https://www.theregister.com/Print/2013/09/04/mps_binge_on_smut_theyre_trying_to_ban/
Oh, of course they will, was mostly just pointing out the hypocrisy..
And I think the report I was thinking of was more recent, but yeah, the gist is exactly the same.
