"The idea in the adult entertainment industry is to mainstream adult content to the point where it is not different from selling any other commodity, such as groceries,"

Do these idiots think porn isn't mainstream already?!?! Maybe they're looking at a different "internet" than I am.

If there were a .xxx domain it would be too easy for me to pop it into my blocked site list on my router and not worry about it popping up anymore. Better yet, in a perfect world porn sites would be REQUIRED to have a .xxx domain then I could block ALL in one fell swoop and keep my kids from seeing any of it. But no... it is far better that I have to screw around with hundreds of killwordsand mail filters and try to block stuff manually.

No, those of you out there who are narrowminded and ready to fight, I am not against pornography. In fact I like porn... but I am against these arseholes pretending to care about kid's best interests while hiring 3rd party advertisers to spam every mailbox in the world and shoving porn pop-ups down people's throats. Hypocricy breeds contempt.
