combine disney, nickelodeon, and the olsen twins fortunes, and i'm sure they can afford to create a separate internet on a domain extension just for kids. the solution is more simple to do this than it is to rid the internet of material that isn't suitable for children.
unfortunately, these laws aren't decided on logic ... so we'll just have to sit back and wait for this to happen (it will eventually) and be ready to work around it ... or move on!

I'm really suprised they haven't forced a filtering, so to speak. Because of free speech, yadda yadda, they can just as easy create a sub-internet or alter-net, kid-net, or whetever, reqiring new extensions and making sure every browser set-up had child protection that could be password for protected. I'm sure it's a major pain in the ass, so forcing these smaller laws is an attempt, no doubt to shake up the industries and perhaps prepare them for the big wammy bammy. Or perhaps they continue to tst the waters to meter public reaction?
Who fucking knows?
