Like I said, the group issue is technology, not pornography. You can bring
up the issue without the topic, just like it would not be popular to
exemplify a racial site on the list for a technical issue. I am not saying
you support or don't support the site goals. I am only saying you are
throwing a gas soaked towel into a area known for flaming. You could bring
the technical issue up without the controversial issue.
On the note of dealing with this issue other places than pornography. Sure
there are other sites. Educational sites where people take courses, they
have contacted my business about these issues. Once again... this is a
subscription issue. Where ever someone has something of perceived value, and
subscriptions are at issue, this is a potential problem. It is not just the
burden of "pornography" sites.
Just making the point because we have the new goal of keeping things less
hostile than it got here for awhile. Focusing on the technical issue rather
than controversial content should help this goal!

Relax John... this is an honest question. I'm not trying to stir up
emotions, I'm trying to find someone that has dealt with this problem
before.... And I don't think currently anyone else has had to deal with
this problem other than pornography sites. I know I haven't on any of
my sites..... yet. But I do know it's a valid topic that people are
interested in hearing an answer too, especially for when their sites do
get comprimised in this manner.
