Another layer of security is about to take place at American Airlines. The airline will begin filtering their in-flight internet service to block access to online pornography.

American says they’re responding to complaints from attendants and passengers, even though there have been no actual reports of passengers viewing what it calls “inappropriate content” on the in-flight internet service.

Internet service is a relatively new feature at American Airlines. The program began in August as part of a six month trial.
