The number one entry knocked me off my stool. And that was one of the less absurd ones. There's always plenty of news coverage about parents who worry about their kids accessing 'Net pornography. Some of us are getting tired of staring down the belly of graphic, unsolicited sexual content most every time we search the Web. It's a hyper-accelerated new phase in the debate over restricting pornography that has long raged in this free society.
Some groups propose an extreme solution.
The National Coalition for the Protection of Children and Families , led by Cincinnati-area Christian political activist Rick Schatz, believes that pornography is harmful to individuals, and like an addictive drug, can damage users' lives. The group would like to see an end to all explicit content, online and otherwise. CyberAngels focuses on pedophiles who lure children via the Internet. Cyber-pedophiles are also the main concern of The National Obscenity Law Center's Cyber Patrol. Similarly, GetNetWise teaches families how to help kids have safe and educational cyber-experiences.
