UK Operators Release Mobile Code

UK mobile poerators will release the mobile content code for children, today, reports Guardian.

Under the new rules an independent content board will lay down guidelines governing what should be classified as suitable for over-18s and the mobile phone companies will ensure that, if such content is offered by themselves or their commercial partners, it cannot be accessed by children.

Children will also be kept out of mobile phone chat rooms which do not have a moderator policing the conversations.
