It's not about losing wood, it's about being less loose with signing up for sites.
Before you laugh and say there is no such thing as surfer paranoia, I've got a couple of friends who have said they aren't going to be joining any new porn sites for awhile because of fear of their name being found out and getting back to their wives. They said they would wait to see if Bush & company get smacked back down or if the right wing gets even more powerful.

I'm not at all saying this is a BIG factor now. It isn't. What I am saying is that it's something we need to be aware of. No matter how much we want to dismiss the ability to "frighten" people, the religous right is growing in it's power and abilities to do just that.

Sure..the "chronic masterbators" are always going to sign up. Those that still are leary of the net and especially identity theft/loss of privacy are now being given more reasons to be cautious.
