I don't think we'll ever have a clean house. Too many scammers on the Net now and I don't see an effective way to stop them.

I think the point tho' KRL is who cares what the scammers are doing?
That's why laws like this are made. To go after the shit heels who are intentionally misleading people to their sites by picking such domains as (the most obvious) whitehouse.com, or by inserting keywords like Backstreet Boys into their text.
About 2 years ago my niece stumbled across some porn sites after doing a search for one of the guys in the Backstreet Boys. She used both his first name and last name, nothing but porn came up.
I want to be able to run my site knowing full well I'm in compliance with the law (and not some vague law) and have no need to fear prosecution for running a simple porn site.
I think an adult extension would help solve this problem. Would it clear up things 100%? No. Nothing will. But if it ensures I can continue to do business without fear of jail time then I'm all for it.
Edited to add: I'm all for fighting this bullshit law as well. However, it's going to be costly for someone that first group of wm's who get prosecuted. I'm sure careers, and businesses will be lost over a law that will surely get turned over in the supreme court.
