Obscenity is obscenity. Watching people shit for sexual pleasure isn't exactly normal.

This is true..but let me play devils advocate for a moment. It doesn't make much of a splash in the news, agreed but it will look good statistically when the DOJ can go to people and say "look..we have over 500 convictions..look how well this law is working." Maybe they aren't trying to make a splash in the news just building up an impressive conviction rate.

I'm in agreement with those who have posted that we all need to consider ourselves targets..at least until we can get better clarification of everything the 2257 law actually means. I still don't understand a big chunk of it.

Yeah Electra, and the way the article will be written, the mass public will think that's 500 CP pushers that is convicted... they won't realize the way things actually are

I remember reading somewhere also that some of the majot ISP might be in trouble over this due to caching web pages. After all, they are placing the stuff on their servers and republishing it.

Exactly!

How is it that we have so many webmasters yet no influence and no way to get the word out to counteract anything that's done to us? If we could organize...but of course its been tried before and will probably never happen.
