First, you post on a fake nick.... no balls. No one on this board with any reputation or who has worked in this industry for any extended period of time would be for .xxx for the reasons that you are. One of the great things about this industry is you don't have to be a "big timer" to make some cash. There are people here who make a couple hundred bucks a month, so several thousand, to hundreds of thousands. Why should the "big dogs" take over? Ever heard of a monopoly or an oligopoly...neither would do the porn industry any good... and don't do most industries any good. The porn industry would not survive with either, and quite honestly a lot of sponsors would have a hard time without us affiliates.
So what's the real problem with minors accessing porn? THEY are looking for it. I was 12 once and I wanted free porn. I went to my favorite search engine (AltaVista at the time) and searched for it. I simply clicked the "Enter" button and BAM I had free porn. So what would have stopped me? At the time I knew WAY more about computers than my parents and there wasn't even such a thing as a filter then. So, here is what RESPONSIBLE parents should do;
1. Setup a username for their children on their computer
2. Setup filters to block porn
3. SUPERVISE their children while they are using the internet
Children are accessing porn because they want to. It is not accident when some 12 year old goes to realsmutty.com... If they type in that domain they know what they are doing, or found it through a search engine with some terms that they shouldn't be using.
Don't want to look after your children all day long? Tough shit. Until they are 18 you are legally responsible for their actions (In the good ol' USA, anyways). I agree you can't spend every waking moment of the day with them, but be proactive and setup filters, their own usernames, ect. so they can't access it.
Your arguments are weaker than your spelling and grammer. You attack the webmaster profession because entry into the market is so easy, but just by seeing how you write tells me it would be difficult for you to enter just about any indusrty. If you are going to come here to attack our profession, do it in an educated, supported, and professional manner.

To be ohnest I dont think noone needs to know who I am, because I am simply putting points through agreeing with xxx, nothing about me needs to be put forward.

I do not disagree, of course they want porn, but for any other media way, it is blocked of. I wanted top shelf mags. But I can tell you now, in some cases porn is throw into the net when people dont want it. Porn is not found just through domains and search eginnes.
I also disagree with anybody entering an industry, because it yes anybody, as long as you have $20 you could let in some layabout shitface who will screw you over given any chance
but thanks for your arguments, I am glad you took the time to write something constructive, unlucky the other people who just write 1 sentence answers.
