I agree that folks should have it on their sites, but the Content Advisor works even for those sites without it.

Part of the problem is parents not utilizing the tools in front of them. The WWW is not the best babysitter.
I agree with you that there are tools out there that parents can use. What I was getting at is that if webmasters actually acted responsibly then any form of censorship being proposed by the DOJ would have far less validity. Parents don't generally know how to parent (or don't feel like it) and I would love everyone to take personal responsiblity for the content they view themselves as well as their children but lets face it - that's not going to happen. It's far easier to have a government take care of them even if that includes losing liberty.

What I would have liked to have seen is the adult webmaster community act in a reasonable manner; but greed is the most powerful force in the universe so here we are.
