Actually, you'd get farther doing what the porno cable channels do.

The do PSA's explaining how to safe guard the adult channels with the VChip and passwords, etc.

If you had a coallition for the porn industry with a warm fuzzy name that would do this kind of stuff about the internet but talking about how to set browser permissions, programs available, and so forth. Then it would be educational to the dunce cap parents who really would configure their PC's by themselves, and solve it on their own.

One of the biggest problems about porn they bitch about online is that they say it pops up everywhere. It does on search engine results, spam, and some other things. But if you did PSA's explaining how to configure search engine results, programs, security settings, and so forth. Then parents would actually KNOW how to do it their fucking selves.

You have to face the facts a lot of the older generation, and even a lot of the online users do not have the first fucking clue about computers, much less that they can actually CONFIGURE THEM to block shit they do no want.

All you have to do is go into any computer store, and ask them how many computers they get a month removing spyware, and shit. Or what the records are for the number removed from PC's. A lot of them have print out's on their walls for the highest amounts removed.

If they knew anything about computers, THIS kinda shit would not be happening. If the adult industry was actually proactive in teaching people how to block the shit they do not want. Then you might get a better image.

However, there is are a number of reasons why this doesn't happen. The biggest being greed. Unless it effects you? Why do you care? This seems to be the mentality out there.

But it's a good idea all the same. If the industry actually had one association that was lobbying, proactive, and did something to promote a better industry on the whole. Then we would have a voice, and could water down the resentment. However, this includes policing the C.P., spammers, and hijackers amung other things.

It comes down to the industy as a whole thinks, and "is there any money in it".
