Trend Micro Web Security for PS3 relies on Trend Micro's Web reputation and URL filtering technology to keep users safe from malicious and harmful Web sites. It provides filtering of Web sites by category -- Adult/Sex, Alcohol/Tobacco, Violence/Hate/Racism, for example. Gamers can thus fire virtual weapons in games like Metal Gear Solid while being denied access Web sites detailing the real thing.

What's next, family timers? Oh wait...

You mean I can no longer access hotnudehitlerloverswithguns.com from my PS3?

Seems like a good idea really. For a family system, parents may (though probably not) want to be able to control the websites that their kids can see. I doubt mom and dad want johnny to be jerking it to the big tv cuz he can see porn on his PS3.

Damn, looks like it's back to crack/LSD sites for me.
