another way George Bush is taking away freedoms

Boing Boing: Rotten.com: our gapingmaw.com, ratemyboner.com sites and others shut in anticipation of 2257 crackdown

porn, its easy to get on the internet right?
well, probably not anymore, even from legit sites where you ?pay?

even funny sites that arent really “porn”
http://www.gapingmaw.com/ has been taken down, as has rotten.com’s rate my boner

if you read the news, you may think that they are just trying to cut down on child porn, so hooray for 18 USC 2257. but no, what this law is really doing is requiring that ALL sites that have adult material keep track of all of the personal information of anyone who appears in said adult material. ALL personal information meaning that every site that sells an adult dvd has to have every actress/actor’s social security number, drivers license scans, dob, address, etc. sounds like a major threat to personal privacy to me.

EDIT:
so maybe every site isnt required to have all that info, but if you display any porn, you have to know who does have that info.
