Re:Nasties on the net (Score 1)

kids over 13 should get mature enough... by the way, is the internet THAT special ? When switching TV channels, everytime I pass MTV or other music channels, i see naked women shaking their ass. Oh, and other tv shows are showing woming rather dumb and not very decent (both fiction but even more in reality-tv) : i think those moral issues, and the roll-model these people represent is a far bigger issue than just seeing some simple human behavior. Oh, and before the internet, there were other ways for children to discover such things : there was always some kid that got a playboy magazine somewhere (or something more explicit), or who discovered some hidden VHS tapes, or.... True, it's easy to stumble upon some explicit material on the net... HOWEVER... on perfectly normal sites I have almost never found such things. It's only when surfing to some questionable sites you might find porn-related popups or banners (sites linking through to more or less illegal music/software/cracks, sites collection "funny movie" (with sometimes some gory stuff too), etc...) .... but is the solution censorship ? I don't think so, the solution is parents guiding their children. Sure, as parent you could restrict internet access in your home, if you want computers on the room of each little child (what a luxury), you might as will try to filter out some stuff, there are products to allow this. Why should the government be a nanny ?
