Washington: American coffee chain Starbucks has announced that it will block access to pornography on its free Wi-Fi in all its US outlets from 2019. While watching explicit content in store was always banned, the coffee giant will now actively block such content, the BBC reported.

The company has been under pressure from a Virginia-based non-profit, Enough is Enough, to filter pornography in its stores. Fast food chain McDonald's changed its Wi-Fi policies in 2016 after pressure from the group.
