As far as I am aware, the only legal restrictions on advertising media is for smokine - in all other cases, it is self regulated by the ad world itself. Case in point: the trouble finding ad space for Zack and Miri. No governmental agency or sidearm is making it difficult - that is strictly at the choice of the agencies that have space inventories.
No, Paul, while I certainly have problems with the tacit approval of theft by those who choose to advertise on the sites in question, I think the solution is to make the option to do so untenable rather than illegal.

Non harmful????
It's harming the profitability of the Internet. I have no problem with you buying content or using content you own to advertsie webcams or dating sites or even your own site. I do have a problem with you having content that is obviously stolen on your site so you can earn a profit.
You don't care because you're laughing all the way to the bank.
buggerlugs as I said it would be content intended for publication, are you talking about computers communicating with each other?
Gonzo I knew you had no case and would come up with more lies. I have never said traffic does not matter in this business. I have said it matters less than many people think. Less is not does not matter. Keep twisting my words.
All my solutions to Tubes are pipe dreams. The Goverments of the world are unlikely to get together to ban the theft of propert on the Internet, the industry will do little about it and some will fight tooth and nail to keep the ability to profit from theft. As for the industry looking at winning the surfer back by giving him something he wants to buy, that's even more of a pipe dream.
Threads and seminars like these usually end up as a waste of time. I don't have the time to waste.
