Internet Escort
Services
Need a date in your home town or a
city you're visiting? Internet escort agencies are beginning to
pop up across the net. Some based in major cities and some are
attempting to cover major cities across the USA (visit 007
Escorts). Most of them hint at prostution but all have disclaimers
that state that they are not pimp agencies. Hope for sex but plan
to be satisfied with just an innocent date.
Mainstreaming
Sleeze
I don't know, I kind of like sneaking
around looking for sex. However, as the internet sex business
grows, it is trying to become main stream to try and cash in on
it's share of giant cash providing IPOs swarming the net. At the
fore front of the mainstreaming of sleeze is Seth Warshavasky
of Internet Entertainment Group (IEG). You'll see Seth popping
up in articles in publications such as Business 2.0. IEG has brought
us photos of Dr. Laura, the Pamela Anderson & Tommy Lee video
and Voyuer
Dorm (cam in a college dorm where
you can view life of coeds live. Will Wall Streat buy in? We'll
have to wait and see if greed overcomes sex taboos. Isn't it funny
that the sex industry is a $10 billion a year business yet no
one will actually admit to buying in.
Gambling On The Net
Government's, national and local, biggest
problem with the internet is that they have a tough time controlling
and taxing it. Gambling continues
to grow thanks to other countries that aren't as concerned with
upholding our morals and are intent on cashing in of a business
where most of their profits come from the good old USA. The Kyl
bill which threatened to punish users (instead of gambling companies)
in the US got bogged down this past year. Sen. Jon Kyl (R. Ariz)
has promised to re introduce a bill to limit gambling on the net
again this year. Write your Congress persons and Senators and
stop this effort. Visit our gambling
links and give it a shot before this privilage is taken away
from you.
COPA Officially
Shot Down in Court
Injunction against Child Online Protection Act
The Child Online Protection Act (COPA),
which was signed into law by President Clinton last October, has
been temporarily barred from being enforced by a federal court
injunction on February 1st. US District Judge Lowell A. Reed Jr.
said that although the Act was well-intentioned, "Perhaps
we do the minors of this country harm if First Amendment protections,
which they will with age inherit fully, are chipped away in the
name of their protection." This means that you and everyone
else involved in the online adult industry are temporarily reprieved
from fear of prosecution for being in violation of the COPA articles.
However, Reed stressed that although he felt this Act was too
ambitious and needed to be toned down, and he felt he could not
allow it to be enforceable, his decision does allow prosecutors
to pursue child-porn and obscenity cases. Reed further explains,
"This order does not extend to or restrict any action by
the defendant^Åconcerning child pornography or material that is
obscene." Now it is up to the Justice Department to decide
whether or not to appeal and take this to trial, or simply abide
by Reed's decision and allow it to become permanent. Read more
