This is the first big mainstream coverage of it.

Let's see if they portray it as something that will prevent CP, or as a worthless paperwork law.

Larry Walters put out the reasons why its a joke, to bad the host is a complete tool to understand things.

But i was glad that Larry said that if stalker wanted the passport of his favorite porn star, all he had to do was buy a set of her pics etc.

Yeah not well put, but his point is valid. It really should be the main concern.

Well that was uneventful.

Walters should have pointed out that you can pass all the paperwork laws you want for the adult side of the industry, but the CP side -- a totally different industry -- isn't going to follow any laws at all.

good point. But with that dick of a host, would have been pretty tough to get anything in. After he treated the Visa chick, i knew the porn interview was going to suck.

You believe the main concern should not be stopping 11 year olds from engaging in a sexual act but from viewing one? Please tell me I misunderstood you.

Hard to deal with the scum that do CP, but no question when you find it you prosecute it as hard as you can. no ammount of paperwork or laws is going to stop scum like that.

But what we as a country and industry do have control over is better controlling who see's the material. And thats what the congressman was trying to get across.

That is true, but this is what 2257 alleges to be about.

Bullshit. It is neither ours nor the government's responsibility to babysit people's children. Yes, we can be somewhat responsible - labelling with ICRA and what have you, but parents should be watching their own children.

Besides, that second point has nothing to do with 2257.

Strongly disagree. It's ours and the parents responsibility. And if we wont do it ourselves and the government wants to help aid the age verification along, then i am all for it.

Should it be ok for all porn stores to let children enter and rent videos and just say hey its not my job to keep adult materials from these kids, it's their parents.....

Also Lycanthorpe, you shouldn't comment on something you did not watch, as you don't know the context of what was said.

Watch the whole segment first, then comment.

I couldn't believe it when that moron said that.. Just like usual Senators have no fucking clue what they are promoting. They just want their name in the press looking like they are doing something. 2257 has absolutely nothing to do with minors watching porn.

You could see the host cut him off and back to the issue as soon as he could.

I was surprised who they got to do it though. A democrat from UTAH! Come on!

Larry Walters handled himself good and made his points quickly before getting cut off. Though the host didnt seem to grasp the secondary producer aspect.

This is certainly going to be a hot debate over the next few years.

The internet is not just some toy like it was during the internet boom. It has now grown into being a part of people's lives, including kids.

I don't think "parents should watch their kids" is a completely valid argument from webmasters any longer. It still holds some weight, but webmasters need to accept that the line between real life and cyberspace is growing thinner and thinner as each year goes by.


The ICRA ratings are a good start, but they really need to release one standard line of code for all adult websites. Their initial process to get the adult site code is a bit of a pain in the ass.
