Question 11

In addition to the factors considered above, what other factors should influence whether content should be classified? 

There were a diverse range of responses to this open-ended question, of which two can be noted. First, as seen at the top of the infograph, some saw the primary issue as being to give individuals greater freedom from government, suggesting that the general concern is for less classification, not more. Second, responses relating to games, and related terms such as ‘violence’, ‘impact’, ‘needs’ and ‘age’ again drew attention to the large number of responses citing the need for an R18+ classification for computer games.
