Link to December 8 MaximumPC post, "UK: Access to Wikipedia Hampered Due to Pornography Filtering System".
Excerpt:
Wikipedia clearly is among the most innocuous websites and one can not imagine it being blocked by a child pornography filtering mechanism. However, the improbable has just occurred in the UK. The whole problem began when an image of a Scorpions album prompted Internet Watch Foundation’s Cleanfeed child pornography filtering system - used by many of the leading UK ISPs - to block the particular page.
You can find the offending album cover here.
