    Blocking Tarrith DoUrden -- 30/03/06 (in reply to #120131826)

    It would make it so much easier to block this type of content which would protect our children from accidently accessing this rubbish.
    The children need protecting from accidental veiwing, which even with the best filtering software, cannot possibly keep up with the number of sites displaying pronography.
    Forcing them to move to .xxx wil make the internet a much cleaner place for our children.

    Too LATE Senator! Keith Styles -- 17/04/06

    As usual, Sen.Coonan left her run a bit late.

    It's a done deed.

    There's nothing wrong with an .xxx domain. If you don't like it don't go there!. It's that simple.
    Trouble is most do gooders like to use the ever so emotive word "porn" or "pornography" to describe what we all like so much.
    It's all about human erotica and our feelings for sex.

    Get over it we all love it.
