Incidence:
France, Germany, Sweden, Denmark and Holland all broadcast pornographic television programmes, many of which can be accessed by special decoders. In 1993, the British government initiated a ban on one Dutch broadcast, which had previously aired in the UK. According to the report, an estimated 25,000 people in the UK had purchased decoders to view the late-night sex shows. In reaction to the ban, the Dutch company doubled the amount of its broadcasts to 18 hours per week.
