Porn site domain suggestion |
Message: |
|
I am part owner of a small business named
werfun.com. I have a concern and a suggestion which would alleviate many of
the problems we are experiencing in our schools and businesses concerning porn on
the net.
***** THIS PROBLEM HAS AN EASY FIX!!!
*****
In short my problem is this - if someone tries to find our
site and inadvertantly types fun.com instead of www.werfun.com - guess where they
end up. Just try to do a search for "fun" and see what type of sites you come up
with.
*****WHAT I PROPOSE IS SIMPLE AND ENFORCEABLE!!!!*****
Simply
give the porn sites thier own ending!!!! (example: www.pornsite.xxx)
By giving porn sites thier own ending (.xxx) people who want porn would be able to
find it, and the people who don't want porn would have a way to avoid it. By requiring
that porn sites move into a specific ending it would be much easier for kids who
are doing legitimate research to not end up at the porn sites (case in point - where
do you think www.whitehouse.com leads to? A porn site! If that isn't deceptive advertising
aimed at teenagers what is?!) If you give porn sites .xxx as thier ending, which
is the already recognised symbol for porn, it would be easier for people who are
looking for it to find it as well as easier for people and children who are trying
to avoid it. Please respond to this letter and post your opinion on this matter
(especially if you agree with me) because as we all know - it's the squeaking wheel
that gets the grease!
