This is to the industries benefit. Because when they eventually bring it to court a skilled attorney will drive a horse and cart through the law because they simply do not understand how the Internet works.

As usual the rest of the industry will stand back and let a few individuals pay for the undoing of this law rather than stepping up to the plate and fighting as a united force.

If you publish porn you have to be able to prove you own the content and the right to publish it, the models consented to it being published on the Internet and that they are over 18. Otherwise peole can distribute what ever they like under the guise of it being peer to peer.

As pornographers we have responsibilities, should we fail to maintain them do not be surprised if Vias and the banks make it even harder to do business.
Charly,
If I'm reading this correctly, it sounds as if you're almost siding with the Attorney General who drafted this peice of legistlation. He definitely has made his agenda clear, and it goes way beyond protecting the innocent.
