  7. Re:New.Net on Which Adware and Spyware are the Most Insidious? · · Score: 1

    it actually overwrites parts of the user's TCP/IP stack so that any time they access the internet (not just their browser), it gets pushed through the (usually fairly buggy) New.Net DLLs.

  19. Re:Porn isn't expoitive to women. on Say Goodbye To Your CD-Rs In Two Years? · · Score: 1

    i agree with the latter point, although i don't see any logical flaw in extending the same reasoning to both pornography and prostitution too.

  25. the aclu.. on Joining the ACLU? · · Score: 1

    .. is activly pro-pornography, but they have absolutly nothing on their web site or fourms about the non-profit activity of natralism/nudism. it seems to me they're more interested in protecting the rights of buisness than advancing and protecting the civil rights of individuals.
