South Carolina bill mandates ISPs to filter adult content unless consumers opt out.
The bill requires internet service providers in South Carolina to filter adult content by default. It defines "adult content" as material harmful to minors. Providers must use commercially available methods to filter such content. Consumers can request deactivation of the filter by submitting a form, verifying they are 18 or older, and paying any applicable fee. Violation of this requirement is considered a violation of the South Carolina Unfair Trade Practices Act.
