Mind Reading: The Researchers Who Analyzed All the Porn on the Internet
Every now and then sanity prevails. Usually the media portrays porn as a bad thing. This study refutes almost every negative stereotype you've ever heard about porn. For instance, fewer than 2% of porn users ever become addicted in any way to porn. The media would have us believe that porn addiction (and more generally internet addiction) is a common and growing problem. That's all BS and most of us knew it, but now there's a study that backs us up!
:thumb:
So is "Rule 34" true — that if you can imagine it, there's porn of it?

When we first started, Rule 34 was almost a guiding idea. The Internet has every kind of imaginable porn; searches are going to reflect immense diversity. We quickly realized that [the data] didn't really support that.

Even though you can find an instance of any kind of porn you can imagine, people search for and spend money and time on 20 sexual interests, which account for 80% of all porn. The top five are youth, gays, [sexy mothers], breasts and cheating wives.

Internet Porn: Sex No Longer Sells In World Of Webcams And Piracy
Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with porn, but only an idiot would actually pay for it! :dizzy:
If sex sells, there's one place it isn't selling: online.

Once the pioneers of the e-commerce movement and advancing online technology during the early stages of the Internet, the porn industry is now in the same boat as the music industry, demonetized by a proliferation of free porn sites and struggling to find a way to profit in a world where money's for nothing and the clicks are free.

"The average consumer thinks porn is free and that has really devalued our product," Allison Vivas, chief executive of Arizona-based adult entertainment company Pink Visual, said during a panel discussion at the Mesh technology conference in Toronto on Wednesday. "It's hard to sell a product most people think they shouldn’t have to buy anymore."

Interesting link. The technological discussion of porn on the web is interesting, but I also enjoy philosophical discussions as long as they are free of feminist and religious dogma. Nothing against religious nuts or extreme feminists, but when I hear arguments about moral decay or rape statistics within the context of a discussion of pornography I know that the discussion is doomed to lack intellectual depth. Other buzz words that usually alert me that the discussion is lacking in intellect and maturity are words like "self-esteem" or "subjugation" or "objectification" - these are all just cues that the person spouting off the canned ideas has a narrow agenda and lacks the ability to engage in a truly intellectual discussion.

Sexting and Infidelity in Cyberspace: Humans Are Still Social Creatures Who Need Face-To-Face Contact, Study Finds
Sexting and porn aren't as good as the real thing! :dizzy:
Although sex and infidelity are now only a keyboard away, at the end of the day, there is no substitute for physical, face-to-face contact in our sexual relationships. That's according to a new study by Diane Kholos Wysocki, from the University of Nebraska at Kearney, and Cheryl Childers, from Washburn University in Topeka, Kansas. They investigated the behaviors of infidelity on the internet and sexting -- sending sexually explicit text messages and photographs via email or cell phone.

Washington Attempts to Make us All Culpable for Online Child Pornography
Sounds like a good idea, right? Well, think again... :mad002:
Meanwhile, former Reasoner Julian Sanchez (also of Cato) muses that "I guess the 'You Are All Criminals Act' didn't have the same ring," and provides some context: Thanks to an unwise Supreme Court decision dating from the 70s, information about your private activites loses its Fourth Amendment protection when its held by a "third party" corporation, like a phone company or Internet provider. As many legal scholars have noted, however, this allows constitutional privacy safeguards to be circumvented via a clever two-step process.

House Republicans Think You Might Be A Child Pornographer, Vote To Allow Unprecedented Snooping
Isn't it funny how Republicans are always talking about small government and yet they turn around and support this kind of authoritarian, big brother style legislation. The hypocrisy is impossible to ignore... EXCEPT that they use the child porn issue as a way to silence opposition. It's a trick that stupid people fall for every time. They're too afraid to speak up because they're AFRAID that other people will accuse them of being interested in child porn. It's an old trick, but it works every time! Here's my take on this issue, child porn is not a big enough problem by any stretch of the over-active imagination to justify curtailing our rights to privacy or free speech! No way! No how! Not by a long shot!
What do you do when you’re pushing a sweeping digital data-retention bill through Congress and want to be sure your rivals never have a chance of opposing the thing on grounds that it violates basic privacy rights? Give it an outrageously misleading title. You know, something most sane humans just wouldn’t question, like the Protecting Children from Internet Pornographers Act of 2011:, which more likely has everything to do with forcing Internet providers to hoard logs of sensitive user data than protecting kids. A House panel approved the measure Friday by a vote of 19 – 10.

But think of the children!!!!! :crybaby:
I really find the hypocrisy of the tea partiers to be reprehensible. They talk about trimming government and then they back this kind of thing. They talk about Constitutional Principles, but then they just throw core constitutional concepts out the window. Those who are willing to sacrifice freedom for safety deserve neither!!!
:curse:
