Vodafone Australia said it planned to introduce 24-hour moderators and profanity filters in its mobile chat-rooms as part of a range of measures to reduce the potential for paedophiles to abuse the service.
The head of Telstra BigPond, Australia's largest Internet service provider, has warned the music industry not to expect much joy from the soon-to-be-released final version of an industry-developed cybercrime code of conduct.
Two weeks after ZDNet News in Britain handed over ID information on suspected paedophiles believed to be abusing the Yahoo! Messenger (IM) service, the Internet portal is still unable to confirm whether it has blocked the offending accounts.
Vodafone will shut the doors on its mobile phone chat rooms until it can implement new measures designed to stop paedophiles abusing the service the company said late today.
