Bad things are out there, just like the truth.

I agree with docholly. I did vote for the simple meta tag though, as keeping things simple is what I like. The same as keeping children off adults sites as that is simple also. Ton's of software and ways to block your pc from your children when your not around to supervise them.

I voted for a more complicated meta tag.

Seeing as the web is a world-wide phenomena I think it's important we not single out what could be considered "adult" based on the values of just one society/culture. A tier-leveled rating system would be essential in allowing different communities to determine exactly what is safe and for whom.

As for having a third party verification system? If there's anything I've learned from reading all those sci-fi novels on my shelves it's this: Don't let any one organization have absolute power and control! EVER!!!

I agree with cd34 in the short-term but I personally would like to see the tags evolve into something that is inclusive as well as exclusive. In other words, relevant for SERP. If it is made such, it makes it much more likely that those who do operate sites just south of mature would also see the benifit of using such a tag.

Also, webmasters in area's not under US controls would be more apt to use the tag.

I voted for number 2, the simplest to use.

Though, I already use the <META NAME="RATING" CONTENT="Mature">
I would use whatever the accepted version of "rating" should be to shout the mouths of anti porn activist.
