What the government proposes is opt-out (i.e. you have to opt out of the filter). What the mobile carriers currently do is opt-in (i.e. you have to opt-in to get content filtered).
I wouldn't mind an opt-in system; it makes more sense, since there are likely more households who do not want this filter than there are that do. Plus there is little to no social stigma of phoning up your ISP and saying "I don't want to access porn".
