I remember when ICRA had a neat little script you could download and fill in all the pertinent info and it would spit out your code. Now they want me to register and send "Personal Info".
Figure the odds of them not folding under the weight of the DOJ for this info. This is taken from their TOS: Quote:

Do you have children ? would you let your kid surf the net unmonitored with filters turned on ? no responsible parent would.... so in essense , rating your site is 100% useless. other than to give yourself and others a false sense of security rating childrens sites as childrens sites , NOW THAT MAKES SENESE If you want to sleep sound at night stop advertising on torrent sites that trade child porn. |
Self-regulation has it's benefits, but it's simply not realistic to think that either of these labels will have a significant impact. A nice gesture to the community, sure... but real results?
Even if this plan was law, you're still leaving out a potentially infinite number of outlets. Websites hosted in nations that don't comply (where other decency laws might not be as strict (so, in actuality, you'd be indirectly promoting that kind of content to the desktops of the underage - as I think was already pointed out)), Torrent Sites, old-school BBS'es (and other file-sharing mediums), etc. You can't regulate the world. If a kid wants it, he's going to get it. I'm with Voodoo, Smokey, et al on this one. Label "kid-friendly" sites... and allow people to exclude browsers/computers from surfing outside that network of sites. Doing it the way this thread suggests - while maybe dripping with good intentions - is backwards, IMHO. The only "benefit" it gives (besides maybe the slight benefit we'd derive by appearing as we're 'trying') is the delivery our industry into the hands of those that may wish to undo us. It'd have no impact on any underage kid that has even half of the computer knowledge most of us did at their age. :2 cents: |
