I think it's worth mentioning that the company that did this (Andrews and Arnold) is one of the few UK isps to provide unfiltered internet access.

"It is part of the terms and made clear at sign up that you are opting out of all filtering in the network, including any government mandated or requested filtering. You have an active choice on this - you can choose to take unfiltered service from us or not to take service from us."

(If you didn't know, most of the other UK isps have default on parental filters, and respond to government takedown requests to block domains. Pirate bay and it's many proxys are routinely blocked. I'm not in support of illegal downloading, but I'm even less in support of government censorship)
