This is shocking to say the least, why not go after things that are actually illegal and wrong...I mean wtf...

SilentKnight 10-22-2005 07:32 AM

Then I'd suggest at this point you take it up with NCFS and call them out on the validity of their press release. In fact, I'd be interested in hearing what they say. I quite agree that much of it is worded the same as the Washington Post article - but NCFS would have to be accountable for what they're currently reporting.

And while I also agree there are some folks in the industry proclaiming "The sky is falling" - there is ample evidence these days to suggest times are a-changing and we'd all do well to stand on guard in defense.

Also they misstate two cases in Florida - first off they are both the same case and same person - and second he hasnt been prosecuted yet.
The also list the fact that there were 40 obscenity cases prosecuted in the US since 2001 - this would also require some facts to back up as I think that there has only been 1 and that one the govt lost.
The fact that one WM has decided to close down their site without fighting sounds to me like they are probably part of this organization and doing it to back up getting people to donate to this cause - which in this case unfortunately sounds like a bunch of people embellishing the truth to make money.

If someone has a real case (and not a pedo case like the other case they mention in that release) then I totally agree that we should back the FSC or EFF to go after the Gov't - just like we have in the past - and won.
They also mention that only 4 cases were brought during Clinton - but if I remember correctly - his Atty Gen did exactly the same thing and caused all of us to have problems and fight against the first COPA - I still remember everyone having the little ribbon and the black pages

The overall point is that there are some people in this industry that try to benefit from causing alarm based on false stories - and it seems to be growing exponentially in the last year - its shameful - but expected in an environment where its already worked once

The FBI goes worldwide these days to pick up Felons. Don't assume your safe by being outside the US if you are selling this type of content to US citizens.

If you are making money from the US illegally they will come and get you with the exception of the handful of countries that won't allow their citizens to be extradited.

You can't be extradited to the US for doing something that isn't illegal in the country they're trying to extradite you from.

holy crap...this is getting insane

SilentKnight 10-22-2005 09:41 AM

So you're trying to say that if an American purchases adult content (that is considered illegal or obscene in the U.S.) from a legal Canadian source - the Canadian can be charged under U.S. law?!?!?!?

Cha'...that'd I'd like to see.

If the U.S. gov't doesn't want what they perceive to be illegal content coming in to the country, its their job to stop it at customs. Despite their enormous collective ego and thinking the world revolves around them...U.S. feds can't impose their domestic laws on other sovereign nations.

BS - youre just falling for the same hype that been going around our industry for the last 8 years - While I know the NCFS organization is a good org and not trying to dis them at all by this - I dont agree with all these idiots posting shit over here as if its brand new stuff - and Im sorry if you take everything that you read out there as fact - but its good to research stuff before posting it - otherwise you tend to cause other people to think that what you are posting is facts - and more importantly contribute to that "times are a -changin" lie - although it was a great song :)

I agree with yout assessment. The United States of Amerika can only continue with a Balkanization.

I will take up arms and fight for the cause, will you?

Take a moment and support your 1st Amendment organizations: IFA, FSC, EFF, ACLU, People for the American Way, VSDA, etc.

Don't be totally passive. Do something positive for yourself, your business, your customers, and the USA as a whole.

Awareness is only the first step in achieving change for the better.... Start educating yourself on issues of importance to you, your freedoms, your life.

Its so sad , so much money in our business and most webmasters are so tight with a dollar.If it doesnt effect them at that minute or there is a path of less resistance (aka paying for patent licenses) or if it doesnt show off wealth they wont do it. Thats why its so easy to beat us up as a group.

It must be great to have your finger on the pulse of all that is factual in the media while the rest of us grunts are merely content to wallow in the mire of half-truths and sensationalistic journalism.

Like I said in a prior posting - if you take exception to NCFS's latest release - take it up with them. I didn't write the fucking thing...but merely reposted it here...for everyone's perusal and interpretation. Contact Susan Wright directly yourself and take it up with her. 917-848-6544.

You can go on believing that things are still the status quo in the industry. That's your choice. I could care less.
