Comcast warned over child porn

Comcast Corp. said it expected to sign a code of conduct aimed at blocking child pornography on the Internet after receiving a warning letter from New York Atty. Gen. Andrew Cuomo.

Cuomo told Comcast in a letter that he planned to take legal action within five days and said he was concerned that the company wasn’t taking “every necessary action to eliminate child porn from the Internet.”

Comcast said in a statement that it joined with other cable operators and 48 state attorneys general to sign a separate agreement on child-pornography prevention last week and that it anticipated it would sign Cuomo’s code of conduct as well.
