So the name was changed because it helps ASACP do what it does better. Granted, ASACP could've said fuck you and kept on with what it was doing, but getting in good with these mainstream organizations makes a huge difference in ASACPs effectiveness in fighting CP.

I totally understand your issue with changing the name though. Politically I felt dodgey about it too, but ASACP isn't a political organization, it exists to fight CP and must do whatever it needs to to do that.

In all respect Aly Bullshit , the money that funded Asacp was adult, the sponsors are adult. Asacp showed Adult sites cared about fighting cp and if other orgs had a problem with that, then the answer isnt to pull away from adult but get in the papers and on tv and talk about how these people dont want to team together to fight cp .THe letter to icann was another shot against us. The only thing the name change shows is they can go afterbigger money. They used us for what they needed and now its time to move to the big bucks. It sucks and shame on you for supporting their current actions.
