It is really such a simple thing. Then let the common browsers implement this with a sort of password protection that the parent can enable. Problem solved - at least if the parent actually cared enough to learn to use the system - but chances are, if they did, they'd be sitting next to their child on the computer watching as it is wherever possible.

IF the government is going to make laws out of it, I personally would not mind it if they did make it mandatory that we used these tags. Jsut as long as they didn't require BS such as a centralized registry where we have to provide our names, addresses, etc or some sort of licensing/fee structure. Of course, I'm not really what you'd call an optimist already, and from my seven years in this business I'd be shocked if the government did something that actually made sense relating to the industry.
Think a while about this. TV's have the V-chip which effectively blocks programming that a parent would deem inappropriate for their children and it is totally ineffectual. Why, most parents don't want to go through the hassle of learning how to program the damn thing. Instead they would rather bitch that the government "needs" to do something. Every TV show is rated and rated for specific content.

Who is going to rate websites? Judging by what I read here....freesite builders who cant figure out which category to submit thier freesites to, certainly aren't to be counted on to rate their site for content. Do you really want to submit your sites to a rating group and wait months for them to tell you what your meta tag rating should be and then every time you update that site...go through the same process again....and again....and again.

Finally, child protection shouldn't be about a child running into an adult site once in a while. I'm old enough to remember running into my parents bedroom when no one was home so I could check out dad's stash of Playboys and ya my little winkie got hard and I'd pull it out and play with it too.

Child protection should be about getting rid of the vermin and predators out there who are looking to do actual, physical harm to them.

My solution for every convicted sexual deviant...nail their balls to a log, set the log a fire and hand them a butter knife.
