Fine, Levin. So then I would ask, if you have created said firewall, how do you prevent this illegal porn from being accessed when it is hosted in other countries?
This reminds me a bit about the Net Neutrality debate--the notion of who controls access to the internet. Can companies pick and choose what you can access?
I assume you would prosecute internet providers that allowed access to off-shore illegal porn. Boy would that create a mess, figuring out who censors what.
But maybe there is an easier solution I haven't thought of.
There seems to be a fiction going around that the sexual mores of yesterday are so much different than sexual mores of today. I mean for heaven's sake, in JS and BY's time, the general authorities argued for polygamy as the only way that men could be chaste. This goes along with the idea that the world is getting more and more evil day by day and has done so for the past 150 years.
I understand that alcohol use actually increased by a lot during Prohibition. There is already the beginning of a backlash against pornography. Hollywood movies now have less nudity than in the 1970s. Ironically, the commercial US porn industry, I have heard, is collapsing due to piracy.
Look up. Maybe things will get better without you legislating it or taking it to court. And consider that your court actions might have made things worse.
