Further notes to my previous mail...
Moving pornography over to port 81 won't work. In the UK, we banned handguns.
The responsible people got rid of them, but the criminals still have them.
Even assuming that it wasn't a technical nightmare, you would still be reliant
on the honest people who would switch to port 81 but all the irresponsible
people would still peddle porn on port 80.
What sanctions are you going to use. Pull their domain name? What's in a name
... they'll just use straight IP addresses. THEN how are you going to stop
them? Long story short, you can't.
The majority of the support mails I have read are mindless mails requesting
something which is not technically possible, for the afforementioned reason.
The others don't seem to be straddling the line of not being censorship
minded, but what they are asking for is a clean net; ie. censorship.
I'll be honest; in my searches I very rarely find adverts for pornographic
material. I still can't work out what all the fuss is about and how people say
they are being deluged with inappropriate material. The whole thing just
sounds like a censorship exercise to me.
