-Caveat Lector-
I agree with June completely on this. Should we not attack the
post and NOT the poster? I often post things I find interesting
but that may or may not indicate that I 'believe' what the article
states, merely that it is interesting. It wastes
time/effort/bandwidth to apply legal disclaimers to each post.
Personal commentary is a different thing, however. Personally, I
post things from time to time in which others have expressed an
interest on list and may not have an opinion at all on the
subject.
Discussing the points the author of an article has made can be a
constructive thing as well as posting articles or information which
will 'counter' the objectionable post. Ad hominim attacks on the
poster assume too much.
The article in question seems valid to me as I never encounter porn
'by accident' and do a great deal of surfing. I hope people will
not be intimidated about posting legitimate articles to the list
for fear of personal attack based on the content of the article.
As long as it is on topic and no personal endorsement or commentary
is made, posts should be made without a defense being necessary.

It sounds like Ashley has very intimate knowledge on the subject...
Bill never said that he 'subsisted' or otherwise engaged in
pornography,
whether online or offline; the point he was making is that this
stuff
doesn't just magically appear on one's computer, whether desktop
system
or palmtop -- the person at the keyboard has to deliberately seek
it out.

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER

CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance�not soap-boxing�please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'�with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds�is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
