There are obviously work arounds to this, but considering the effort
we put into other things that don't completely work it doesnt seem
like a huge issue. Especially since porn sites are not people we need
to worry about offending or pissing off, it isn't the local book
club.
So you're in favor of censorship as long as it's limited to stuff you
don't like?
<smile>
That's not censorship it's regulation. It would be so easy to just
make all adult content move over to .xxx. Granted the demand for
domain names would make for a nice economic boost in someones pocket.
All existing .com/.net/ ...etc. would just need to redirect to the
new .xxx.
If you are caught with adult content on a .com/.net/.etc you pay a
fine and continued abuse results in the loss of the tld. Just like a
drivers license works.
This would make the admins for forum sites go nuts with moderation.
But it's no different then a bartender checking ID.
(And just so you know, we're in the hosting business and we don't host
spam.)
