Pupils browse porn on donated laptops

ABUJA (Reuters) - Nigerian schoolchildren who received laptops from a U.S. aid organization have used them to explore pornographic sites on the Internet, the official News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reported Thursday.

NAN said its reporter had seen pornographic images stored on several of the children's laptops.

"Efforts to promote learning with laptops in a primary school in Abuja have gone awry as the pupils freely browse adult sites with explicit sexual materials," NAN said.

A representative of the One Laptop Per Child aid group was quoted as saying that the computers, part of a pilot scheme, would now be fitted with filters.

But isn't this exposing them too early? I mean look at what happened to those grade 5 kids who had sex.

Probably then it is more needed to the 11yr olds in US. I dont think nigerian 6year olds need it.

They didn't mention how many pupils had porn on their laptops. Also, I'm sure these pupils have family members, it might a kid's dad or older brothers who are getting the porn (cheaper and more private to watch porn on a laptop than at an internet cafe).

I see it as a good sign. The fact that they got porn on their computer is proof that they're actually learning how to use it.
