Thus as I talked about earlier if you give them a solution that will actually help parents and put some responsibility on webmasters a politician will listen. They like "wins" and getting some sort of agreement that helps parents and puts some obligation on webmasters is a win.

B: I don't have zero responsibility. I don't hide behind fake names, fake avatars, and layers of corporate identity. I've been on the front lines of the adult industry since may 20, 1985. The day I opened my first video store with an adult section that drew the ire and attack of the local government.
So, get back to me after you've been around a while, and actually defended free speech on the front lines.
Even now, I'm embroiled in a local government fight to build our new factory. It created a new ordinance, in a town that only makes about 6 ordinances a year.
So spare me from your "qualified evaluation."
Fortunately, there are those that would stand up for what you pay lip service to.

ROFLMFAO!!
Adult webmasters have ZERO responsibility as it stands now. None. Minors can come and go to their sites as they please and a webmaster doesn't have to do squat. Since you seem to own an offline store you have MORE responsibility than webmasters do with that store or stores than all webmasters do with any of their sites. I'm glad that you stand up for your rights but don't sit there and pretend that webmasters are burdened in any way to keep minors out of their sites. In terms of keeping minors out webmasters don't have to do squat. Making them use a tag that the END USER has to implement is NOT censorship. It's akin to having an empoyee/bouncer who cards people and keeps minor out in the stores you own.
I've always enjoyed you and your posts here but you can take your "You don't care about the 1st amendment" spiel and stick it where the sun don't shine. So I guess that Michael from Adult Biz Law doesn't care about the 1st amendment either when he said he agreed with an end user approach too then?

So basically porn sites have to "tag" their sites with an tag like the ICRA or soemthing similar.

Absolutely. As long as it was only used by the end user.
