some of you guys are entirely too black or white for discussions like this. DrTandem, no i do not think every adult site out there is trying "lure" kids... in fact, i remember from my childhood (before i was 18) trying to sneak peeks at any playboys or penthouses lying around. were those publications trying to lure me into a sordid pedophile ring (i think not)? or was it the person's fault who left the mag laying around where a young teen could get ahold of it (same as a parent that won't take the time to introduce filters and passwords into their children's internet use).

did you ever think that some of these under 18 year olds were trying to sneak a peek themselves by using the internet instead of dirty magazines? or are you still saying the only reason a kid (and yes, teenagers, especially those under 18, are still kids) goes to a porn site is because they were lured and not for the visual stimulation these sites offer ? most pedophilia internet offenses seem to iniate from forums and chat rooms anyways. the sites used by the scum pedophiles are usually private as it is.

the problem is you have internet illiterates trying to settle the biggest technological frontier in ages. and they are failing miserably at it. with that in mind, yes, warning pages for LEGITIMATE sites is all that should be required. going after internet pedophiles with standards that don't even address their methods of attracting victims is pathetic.
