word of wisdom

Hooper,

Please dont take this as an attack because that is not the spirit in which I intend this. But I have a couple of serious questions for you...

1) What exactly does the toolbar product do?

And dont insult our intelligence here please. I'm not talking about the feature set the users see. It's a free product, so what's in it for you?

2) Where's the line at for you personally?

Seriously, I'm curious. I know easy money is like a drug. Everyone in this industry has compromised western society's typical view of principles by selling porn. Why do we do it? It's an easy way to make money.

The "line" is different from almost all of us though. I know several people in this industry who do not even deal with hardcore. For others they draw the line at spam. The majority wont touch kiddy porn, but I wonder how that would change if it were legal and selling like crazy.

Where's the line at for you? Now I'm not talking about what's legal, or what you can get away with. Let's assume there were no boundaries other than your own sense of right and wrong. How far would you go? How much money is enough? Lets say you could automatically drop a piece of code on a surfer's computer and have them click OK to some T&C's you know they'd never read. Upon clicking "OK" you could draw $5 a day off his credit card til he figured out how to jump thru your hoops to make it stop, would you do it?
