Search Engine Weeds Out Porn

[HellHouse]

This is scare-tactic bullshit and our industry needs to stop putting up with it.

Do you guys see how they try to link these 2 "factoids" together, as if they are related?

1. The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children says every year one out of every five children is sexually solicited online.

2. One of the more common incidents on the Internet involves children searching for explicit topics that send kids to pornographic web sites.

This article is insinuating that children being sent to pornographic websites increases their chances of being solicited online, somehow. This is another bullshit link between legitimate adult porn and child solicitation.

There's so many special interest groups intent on proving a link there. They dump money into these studies constantly and the more they keep repeating themselves in different ways, the more people will believe them. If you keep scaring the parents, they will keep buying your newspaper.

Our industry needs more trade groups and organizations to team up and conduct our own studies to prove these bullshit links wrong. They have their studies, we need to do ours. If we don't, we're going to keep seeing them promoting these links to the general population.
