 re #71:  "Oh albaugh, puh-leeze!  Give kids more credit!"
 
 I certainly agree that parents should be able to (and should take the
 time to) influence what their younger kids are exposed to until those
 kids are old enough to understand the issues but if that's the goal of
 this legislation it's going about it in a way that is going to trample
 over all sorts of people who aren't interested in the slightest in what
 shf does or doesn't allow his kids to see.  If he wants to make decisions
 about what's appropriate for them to view, that's an issue between him
 and his kids, not between him and everyone else on the Internet.

Personally, I would be more in favor of requireing all the sex sites to have
the word .sex at the end of their address.  (make that porn sirtes.)  Then
we would know where these people and tah their porn were.

At this point, so many of them disguise what they really are under false names
and by linking them to noneporn sites..

I agree that many of the porn sites are sleazy and attempt to 
attract viewers by deliberately deceptive measures.

However, this legislation affects more than just straightforward
for-profit porn sites.

There would not be agreement on which sites are .sex and which are not.
I presume any site concerning sex medically, pop-medically, or
pseudo-medically, or..??.. would not be .sex?

probably not.  medical facilities and educational institutions usually fall
under .org or .edu anyway

So under this bill, would it be legal for a site run by a non-profit to
publicly post sexually explicit material and make it freely available to
all regardless of age?
