But as we were all hid behind the "2257 does not apply to me" clause I don't see many wanting that. Might mean they have to be responsible.

The only hope is the film and music industry putting pressure on the government or us coming together to sue Search Engines and advertisers on these sites.

But for porn and the present business model it will not solve the situation for many.
Suing the advertisers will be the key, one judgment against and they all will run for the hills and bunch before that.
