New York Times Article - "Gutter to Greenback"
New York Times: From Unseemly to Lowbrow, the Web's real money is in the Gutter
Here is a bit of the article: Life is good at the bottom of the cyberspace pit. When the Arizona attorney general's office recently shut down a Scottsdale company, CP Direct, it offered a glimpse into the spoils of the Internet's dark side. The company sold pills via the Web that promised to increase penis length, bust size and body height. Enough people had spent $60 an order ? mostly for the "Longitude" treatments, with ingredients that included pumpkin seed, sarsaparilla and "oyster meat" ? that the state was able to seize more than $30 million in luxury real estate and a herd of Mercedes-Benzes, Rolls Royces and a Lamborghini. ...... Those who provide some of the sites that many people object to say they have nothing to hide. "Obviously, there's a want for this stuff, because there's billions of dollars spent on it every year," said David Marchlak, who has brought the world sites like Voyeur Dorm, a Web precursor to the "Big Brother" television show that watches a Florida house shared by a cast of young women. "We're not forcing it on anybody." |

Unseemly, lowbrow, gutter, all in the title. Nice unbiased article.
They also mix porn and scams together as a single issue. Although there is a nice comment about porn people delivering the goods no matter how "unseemly" the goods are. |

just to point out,,, the company that got busted for selling those penis pills did not get in trouble for selling the pills cuz they didn't work,,,
they was not allowed to do business again because of a prior conviction.. also they was fucking with the customers by fucking up their charges.. |
