Your thoughts?

>operators and others crossed the line from acceptable smut to illegal obscenity

When in your opinion is the line crossed?

From my years of experience in building an "acceptable" website believe it or not there is one thing that most adults instantly agree on with regards to "smut" on the internet.

NO AROUSED GENITALS OR REPRODUCTIVE FLUIDS ON ANY DIRECTLY ACCESSED DOMAIN. That is the line.

Very interesting ...
the keyword being "contemporary"...

Although the "law" is geographically based the information age is not. There are millions of internet communities each having their own "netiquette" of behaviour and acceptability.

The definition of a "contemporary community" must include various "cyber" communities.
