Our personal views about extreme forms of pornography likely cover the same spectrum and are as incompatible with each other as are the views of the general public. We could talk about taste, morality, censorship, etc., until the cows come home. What most of us should be able to agree upon is that extreme porn is bad for business.
Some people would ban what we do entirely. But they are in a minority and if we keep our act relatively clean (pun intended) we can enjoy a market worth billions of dollars a year for as long as we want. Extreme porn puts all that at risk and so few of us make money from this type of site, we have nothing whatever to gain by supporting them. And when we turn a blind eye, we are supporting them. Let alone when we actually work with them or with people who actively support them.
If this is a business and we are professionals, we need to stop being so damn tolerant, stop making the excuse for people that what they do is "just business", and shut out anyone who threatens what we do.
