Not a terribly strong argument. Everything gets blamed on the net now, just as a hundred years ago everything was blamed on the dime novel, and 500 years ago everything was blamed on that infernal printing press.

Cro Magnon probably blamed everything on the horrible invention of fat-and-charcoal cave paintings. Then they started to use red ochre and the whole world went to hell in a handbasket.

And boys and men have been doing sexual things to sleeping women for a million years. This isn't a new phenomenon, something no boy ever thought of doing before the internet.

Now, if you were to say this is an example of how the media will scapegoat porners, I'd agree with that.

Which is why I think we need to give the politicians a scapegoat for their ritual humiliations and torture. And that scapegoat should be spammers bulkers and toolbar installers.

If we don't give the politicians the spammers and scumware boys, they will be just as happy to use us as their scapegoat.
