Pornography and Obscenity It is obvious that pornography has exploded over the recent years in the internet. There are hundreds of thousands if not millions of web sites dedicated to pornography and explicit material. Search engines such as google had to set filters on searches so that the user can define whether they want explicit images to display. With the massive number of pornographic images on the web, now you don't even have to type in an explicit or vulgar word to get porn images. Sometimes the filters don't even help. More recently, the idea of a new file extension, .xxx specifically used for explicit sites is gaining popularity. The ".xxx" file extension would ensure that school agencies and government facilities can block out all .xxx sites, not just specific words related to sites. It would easily identify any adult site. http://www.ineedhits.com/free-tools/blog/2005/06/search-engines-and-technology-new-xxx.aspx -Phillip Cook- --------------------------------- Yahoo!
