The feds are doing it because getting rid of porn is one of Mr. Ashhahahahaha?s personal crusades. Frankly Mr. Ashhahahahaha hasn?t been very successful in getting the states excited about the idea of obscenity prosecutions. So now he is doing it himself. For all of you saying that they are only going after extreme because of the simulated rape content think again. I read the indictment, and it seems to me one of the independent charges being leveled is that depiction of male on female anal penetration is obscene. For those of you that think free sites are more susceptible think again on that one as well. Paysites are more vulnerable because there is a traceable transaction where money has exchanged hands across state lines. What the industry should do is fight back rather than waiting for something to happen. Bring a Federal action in a jurisdiction that is more receptive to adult content seeking a declaratory judgment that your content passes legal muster. The Community standards issue as it applies to Internet porn is ready to be litigated all the way up to the Supreme Court. I think it has been hinted that this is an issue that interests them (the Federal Judiciary) and local community standards might not be appropriate when dealing with Internet content. Isn?t everyone better if off if these issues are litigated on somewhat friendly turf rather than in the heart of a conservative community? The judges being appointed to the bench aren?t getting any more liberal.
Ashhahahahaha is going after those pushing the envelope to build up favorable case law. If he can get the courts to uphold community standards in these cases where the envelope is being pushed then he is free to go after more mainstream porn because the underlying premise that you can apply local community standards to Internet porn is valid.
