Vodafone announced it has locked down 'adult' internet content – pornography, gambling, violent games, chat and dating services – from all 3G phones. Those wanting access to such content will have to prove the operator they're over 18.

The major UK operators have all agreed to introduce technology to stop kids looking at adult content via their phones by December.
