From the article, quoting Sharon Girling, the chair of IFFOR's (rather unfortunately-named) "child abuse working group."
Quote:

IFFOR's decision to ensure that all dot-xxx websites and any site to which they link are labeled as containing adult content by MetaCert creates a safe area on the internet for children and families.

The idea that labeling .XXX sites has created a "safe area on the internet for children and families" is patently absurd. The rest of the Web (you know... the 99.999999% of it that has nothing whatsoever to do with .XXX?) isn't affected one iota by whatever labeling provisions or other policies IFFOR cooks up.
If I'm wrong, where is this wonderful new "safe area," exactly?
Presumably not on .XXX (right?), and since IFFOR's oversight and its labeling protocols only extend to .XXX..... what in the world is she prattling on about here?
As the kids these days might say:
EPIC LOGIC FAIL.
