Pornography is now banned, at least, bush is going to make it so horrible to maintain that it wont be worth the effort. Or even worse, he's going to cause a great rise in the amount of virtual pornography. (hentai, ecchi, drawn kiddy porn, erotic stories, that sort of thing.)
Thats right, anyone whose used Gay.com has probably noticed that a few images were like this.
Thats due in part to a new content regulations, previously ruled unconstitutional in 10th court of appeals. That requires an AMAZING amount of information to be recorded about any porn in general. First and last names, alias's and other names, copy of depiction printed on paper, copy of EVERY associated url it is depicted under, they must also "maintain indexes which find the record alphabetically, numerically, by the performer's last name (followed by first), aliases, stage names, title, and identifying marks." If someone steals the image or direct links it to our site, we must update our records. YOU must maintain these records, no third parties, the organization must maintain these records for 7 years, or should it go belly up, _I_ am required to maintain them for 5 years. They also must be available for inspection for at least 20 hours a week. We also must have a disclosure statement, "Several paragraphs in 11 point type, on the front page of the site, saying the title of the work, date of production, publication, duplication, reproduction, or reissuance. the street address where the records are kept, and the name, title, and business address of the custodian of records."
I have to wonder along with the author of the original article, why have the public responses to acts like these, the weapons litigations, patriot act, bans on gay equal rights, property siezure, and other constitutionally nixxed laws always been apathy.
Please people, get mad, its only going to get worse...
