it's the principle of a government shutting down something that harms absolutely and is generally good for morale. it's the worst aspects of censorship in effect.

See that would have worked during the Cold War and led to a lot more porn. Too bad.

Unless the focus on the 'evils' of militant Islam is shifted back towards the 'commies'; another Cold War, anyone?

Ironically enough, I found this news article on the Rapture Ready message board and the members were praising it as "one of the few good aspects of human totalitarianism". As opposed to divine totalitarianism, I imagine (I visit RR for the same reason I visit Maddox and SA; low-brow humor, although SA and Maddox are a bit more enlightened).

Actually, that's not ironic at all. Nevermind.

Yeah baby... I can't wait for the day when we Yanks lose our place as the world's superpower, and the People's Republic of Crushing Dissenters With Tanks starts running the show. Then the world shall miss the days when the worst thing going was the mean old US swatting the occasional dictator without France's permission.

You know, I been surfing around the web, and virtually all of my old pic links are now gone. Yup, that's it. The funny thing is, more than 3/4 of them have no nude pics on them at all, merely being repositories of models, celebrities and race queens.

Even those sites which are up, the site layout has been heavily modified. Its kinda pity, because I used to be able to watch a lot of interesting movie clips, flash games and MTVs from such websites. And neither of them were nude either.

However, the more permanent porn fixtures, the one that accept cash, interestingly, are still up.

Strange way to shut down the porn industry.*shrug*
