oh that's right, I forgot most people can't be trusted to make their own decisions.
(you think I'm kidding, right?

)
I don't know what % US affilliates make up for most sponsors, but I think some are really alienating a large group - and for what? what happens if this joke of a law is scrapped -esp the 2ndary producer crap - will they allow the hardcore stuff again? I think not - I think that your powers that be are trying to bully and intimitate us out of business, and put the threat there that even if this doesn't go through -watch out cuz they will keep trying.
I started in this biz not too long ago, so I can deal with whatever needs to be pulled or changed as I don't have a ton of it yet...I feel for those who have had their whole livelihoods destroyed by this.
It's also disappointing to see this whole fiasco with the TRO because I really think we need some cohesion in this industry to make sure everyone's free speech rights aren't just trampled on -it will certainly affect much more than just porn in the long run.
I better stop now cuz I'm in a shitty mood anyway & I'll just go on forever
