I wouldn't write it off as paranoia, though.
Obviously. Since you are the one spouting the paranoia. :uhh:

It's not trampling on constitutional rights or restricting access to anything. It's an optional format adult sites can use.

I'm very glad you're so optimistic. I wouldn't write it off as paranoia, though. Given the current cultural and political climate, it's something worth discussing, since it impacts the structure of the Internet for many years to come....]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,13590898 Mon, 06 Jun 2005 14:40:59 EDT Re: So? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,13590851 oliphant : The world hasn't ended YET...either.

I think the world ending would be a YET or higher concern.

When there is talk of this YET becoming an IS...then it can be addressed. Until then it is simple paranoia.

Like "content=xxx". This way regardless of domain the page can be filtered by the user.

They can say whatever they want, doesn't mean people have to be exposed to it. This is the same dumbass argument made by spammers and junkfaxers...free speech. Free speech is standing on a street corner spouting whatever stupid sh!t you want to spout, not hijacking my services that I pay for to advertise to me. I have just as much right to filter and cordon, or subscribing to a provider who filters and cordons as they do to say what they're saying.

No one is banning anything...just making it easier for people who don't want to see/hear/read to exercise their right not to see/hear/read it.

And it's not the ones looking to avoid it that are Ghettoitizing things...it's the smut peddlers who use every trick in the book from traps and domain hijacking to using misspellings of popular sites to get hits on their pages who are doing that quite well on their own.
