Internet Decency

sales@sug.org (Charles Sumner)
(smirk, Internet)

Overheard at the Sun User Group's 2nd Annual "Computers & The Law"
Conference last November... 

Mike Godwin, Legal Consul of the EFF (Electronic Frontier Foundation) and
a strong supporter of freedom of information, was discussing the issue of
pornography on the internet.  He felt that the whole issue had been blown
completely out of proportion and that the actual amount of explicit
material available is quite small when compared to the educational
resources of the Internet.  He was particularly upset by sensationalistic
media reports which made it seem like you can't turn on a computer without
seeing "smut". 

He asked the audience, "How many of you encounter pornography on the
Internet everyday?" The audience stammered sheepishly for a moment until
someone responded, "Ummm... Do you mean accidentally?"
