It is dangerous when we put too much power in the government's hands, especially with privacy stuff like this... <BR/><BR/>But, I don't think it's a bad idea to curtail those free tours for porn sites, or at least make them more difficult to access.Sebastien Millonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06384643621878633512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31906869.post-84376759677305572422007-02-28T06:25:00.000-08:002007-02-28T06:25:00.000-08:00In Australia this hasn't become a huge issue yet, ...In Australia this hasn't become a huge issue yet, it's here, yes, but we've had more issues in the news with online pedophiles in chat rooms.<BR/><BR/>I think the essential message that should also be put out there is that parents need to monitor their children's internet usage. If a parent decides to give this responsibility to governments, then there'll be other issues, other things will be censored, and govts will say 'you told us to, for your kids.' It's a double edged sword, but a parent can control what their kids see on the net. <BR/><BR/>I'm a parent myself, and yes, I do write adult fiction, but there isn't a moment in they where my child is dumped on the Internet without supervision. It's my responsibility as a parent to enforce that, not a government's or an organization (that will request governmental intervention/legislation). A kid accesses porn because there's no supervision.<BR/><BR/>I don't know of any Internet cafes here in Sydney, where I live, that even bother requesting proof of age Identification to prevent minors accessing porn sites, but they can filter adult content. But on the homefront, I do believe it's a parent's responsibility, and when parents whine and complain, I think they're wussing out on that part of the deal. If a kid, under the legal age, tries to watch porn, then it can be confiscated/disconnected.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31906869.post-37855936131380504462007-02-26T11:37:00.000-08:002007-02-26T11:37:00.000-08:00Hahaha, love that last line buddy!

Frankly, I'm kind of glad I grew up at a time when the only way you could see these kinds of thangs was thru someone's stash. <BR/><BR/>I cannot imagine nowadays, with cyberspace literally being littered with hardcore shit all over! Kids must really see some horrible hardcore traumatizing crap! Hell, I often get repulsed by some stuff out there, I can't imagine a child!<BR/><BR/>But hey, I'm an adult now and can handle it. Sometimes I handle porn all too well. ;)WAThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06265139894543519211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31906869.post-43017769755309678492007-02-26T11:22:00.000-08:002007-02-26T11:22:00.000-08:00Good for me: Yeah, it is a worthy cause, I hope th...Good for me: Yeah, it is a worthy cause, I hope they will be able to get something done about it, it really is crazy that kids can come across adult content so easily.<BR/><BR/>Saboma: Thank you for writing about it, I'm glad I learned about this and was able to do a little something!
