One can certainly begin to get that impression at times. My take on it is that the industry isn't really all that bad, as frontiers go. Sure, there's some bandits, pirates and theives about, but the majority of the adult web is ethical, hardworking and honest.

Unfortunately, it appears that the greed of some is no longer satisfied with fleecing surfers but has turned to exploitation of webmasters. No surprise there, since the flood of new (read: naive) surfers has slowed recently while there's been a surge of newcomers into our industry.

The market is now saturated with overused content, overexposed programs and tons of free porn and, in the meantime, the average surfer has become more sophisticated. It's a lot tougher sell nowadays. But there are some who got used to that easy money made a few years ago. Easy money that came from jerking the surfer around. So, they've set there sights on other game.

However, webmasters are going to prove to be a bit handier in dealing with this scum than the surfer. Questionable practices that were tolerated when directed towards nameless surfers are going to end some careers when tried on webmasters. We can look forward to a good deal of rock'n'roll in the next year...
