So how would I like to see the Internet regulated more? Some of these would be hard to do and they would need fine tuning but this is what law making is about.
DMCA, it needs updating. The part that holds safe the hosting company from illegal content being uploaded is being abused. It's obvious that the people uploading some of the content to Tube sites do not own it, do not have the right to upload it and are breaking copyright laws. Content producers spend money to SELL their content, not for one person to buy and 10,000 to share.
2257. The idea that anyone can post porn content without effective proof the models agreed to it and are of legal age is wrong. You need to be able to prove you own content, or have the right to post it, the models agreed to it being published and are of legal age. Today the law requires you have a line of text at the bottom of your pages.
Spamming. The companies that are the problem are those sending out millions of emails a day. They can only do it because it costs little to send them. If it cost more they would not be profitable. Maybe the end of free
unlimited emails is the solution. I have servers and a lot of hosting, for a small guy. That should give me the right to send out XYZ number of emails related to the size of my servers and hosting. My domestic home connection should also allow me to send out a set number. This would cost those sending out millions a day.
Domain Registration. If you run a commercial company taking money you domain registration should be 100% correct and open to authorities and people you authorize. I have seen domain registrations that are clearly fraudulent they. If you hide there's a good chance you have a reason for it. If you want to work from your back bedroom and don't want anyone to know fine. Just expect that the registration is accurate and open to the people who need to know. The idea that you can register a domain through an anonymous registry and take money on that domain is clearly wrong. You're running a business, be business like.
That one I expect to get the most flack.
Censorship. I see no reason other than on extreme violence, under age porn, and terrorist type activities that censorship should have a place on the Internet. However if a country has passed a law that a certain type of content is not available in a shop on their high street why should it be allowed on the Internet?
Under age access to porn. I'm not worried if a 16 year old sees a porn movie, I did and it clearly did not effect me.
But a 6 year old should not be exposed to it. Not sure how that one would work but if they could solve it there would be a bonus for us. Maybe the easiest way is for Bill Gates to give Net Nanny away for free with every copy of Windows.
The problem of policing it across the world is not such a problem. Anyone clearly breaking the law on a repeat basis can have their site blocked by a country and yes they could eventually lose the domain. Who here would like to see Tube8 and Redtube lose their domain?
None of the above would mean the loss of porn on the Internet, in fact it could lead to more people making more money on the Adult Net.
Or we can keep going the way we are.
