    A shameful surrender to pornographers

    Arlington, Va. - Another federal judge has struck down the Child Online Protection Act. Had it taken effect, the 1998 law would have done one simple thing: require Internet pornographers to verify the age of customers through the use of adult-access codes or credit cards.

    Last month, Judge Lowell Reed Jr ruled out even this basic measure of accountability as a violation of the free-speech rights of porn purveyors and their often addicted customers.

    But Visa says we can NOT use their cards as Age verification. Imagine.

        Just look at who wrote it
        You never get the real story from them and you can bet they would change fact to best suit there own agenda yet I bet you there are a couple of guys down there who are members of sites that this great industry promotes.

          Ah, yes, we aren't pimps... we're pushers, pornpushers....

          I have a machine that has a just-for-kids account - I've never used it to work, surf porn, whatever... my daughter is a whiz at surfing all over the place; she can reap a harvest of trojans and mainstream spy-ware that's pretty impressive.

          She's never come across an adult site, and when she surfs I'll sit with her until she gets into one of those interminable games.

          These people whose children come across "unwanted" porn sites must be doing a lot of late-night one-handed surfing of their own for their kids to have so many "unwanted" day-time encounters with adult sites.

          If we can be "responsible" this way why can't the Christian Monitor readership and poll responders do it too?
