The deliberate concatenation of 'pornography' and 'cp' in most statements made by the right should be actionable through litigation. If we were to make parallel statements (eg. implying that recording media producers were pirates), we would be sued instantly.
It would be great to see the adult industry able to defend its character as a legal industry and to hold wreckless commentors accountable.

Very interesting suggestion. We are certainly going to be developing Best Practices, and speaking for myself, I think Peer Review is a sensitive subject, and has to be implemented carefully, but if there ever was an industry that could use a dose of it, this is it. That isn't an official statement saying we will do it, because the board I think will have to agree to something like that, but there are many ways to skin a cat.
I am so champing at the bit to start getting out there into the heartland of America and not just defend thisn industry, but really begin defining these issues correctly once and for all, that I'm about to blow a gasket. Thanks for the suggstions!
