Should Innocently-Named Porn Sites Be Illegal?

Folic_Acid writes "CNET News.com's Declan McCullagh is reporting that the U.S. House of Representatives is scheduled to vote on an amendment to a bill dealing with child abduction that would make it a crime to use an innocent-sounding domain name to drive traffic to a porn website." I can't wait to see the counter-bill that would illegalize naughty, filthy names that lead only to inoccuous content.

A Hot, Slippery Topic

We are, indeed, all tied up by our very own language in this matter. It would be unwise to let Congress ram a bill down our throats that satisfies many people, I'd argue passionately that a long, hard battle over the real issues would lead to legislation that would please everyone in the end. Even those who are into deviant sects could potentially be won over, provided that a compromise is hammered out.
