What internet content label do you think should be the standard and promoted as such?

Walrus, if the requirement in law is "page must be rated, browsers may not display a page unless rated" compliance is about 100% by default. If no page can be seen without a rating, every page will have a rating. Pretty simple.

Yes, I know some people will be out there with ratings disabled browsers and whatnot, but the reality is MOST of the people we target for this sort of thing (parents with children surfing) would be the ones using it, only a few l33ts would bother to go around it, and that is pretty much unavoidable.

US cannot outlaw porn production, even the current AG has admitted that much of the current porn is protected free speech, it would be pretty hard to move back away from such a statement.

That was meant tongue in cheek to hopefully get a little laugh...and here I thought I was funny!

As far as compliance, the assumption you seem to be under is that the US is a large enough market and that the market will in fact force compliance. Perhaps it is.

In my mind, compliance is more along the lines of you rate your page as R when it is in fact X rated, technically if it is just a US law, there aint shit that can be done and I hear you LL owners bitch almost daily about submitters who cant seem to find the right category. Who's to agree, that what you think is adult, I think is restricted or vice versa. A self rating systems will never be acceptable to the US govt., IMHO. Especially since it actually works to industries benifit. With the system you all describe, we only get qualified traffic.
