Was just thinking about the history of the net "legalities" Dave. We got off with a fairly smooth ride most of the 90's and early 2000's when you consider net lawyers were waiting and warning of an administration coming along and invoking RICO and hell knows what else.
Only my experience, but seems that porn is one of the businesses prone to the ebb and flow of govts and public opinion - it's been the same for decades - and we are now seeing the tide flow in, this time, not so much from public opinion, but from an element within govt.
Tho issues may be decorated to appear otherwise, at the core it's a "quiet war" over "net neutrality" and coupled by a desire to control. Only my
worth, but suspect this desire for control will increase over time, not just by govts, but also by those with dollar signs in their eyes.
