If the feds start locking up spammers who send porn to eight year olds mailboxes and blocking overseas ips for the ones they can't get. And lastly shut down peer to peer file sharing systems that are nothing but "burglar" tools in cyberspace. Shutting down the abiltiy of webmasters to rip off surfers and shutting surfers ability to rip off webmasters is the only way. Then those of us who want a fair price for a good product will be able to enjoy being in business on the net.
This is totally wrong. People like XPics hurt the business and not Joe Smuck who decides to run a pornsite. The big players that want to earn money in a year and bail are the problem. They would not get discuraged by a 10k deposit but you would kill all real amateurs and many other small niche sites that really make for interesting surfing.
