This message is for webmasters not sponsorship programs. My question is what are you plans about all these new regulations?
I personally have already stopped posting images on my website and will now only link to fhg's and am in the works of getting my associate programs to set up movie gallaries as well. As far as any images that I posted prior to this date, they will not be removed. Yes I am learly going to violate the law, but not on a matter which is porn related but on a matter which is principal related.
You see it is my belief, if a law is good for one company, it is good for all companies, and size does not matter. Well the largest search engine in the world, claims its impossable for them to remove any website and/or materials they have indexed. They in fact crop images, and cache them. That means the images are not only stored on googles system, but also they are manipulated by google.
As long as google, a us based company, doesn't have to follow these rulings, then niether should any company. And believe me when I say google will not obtain all the hundreds of thousands of documnts this law is requiring them to get. It is indexed and because it is indexed, they cannot remove the images. So I say as a blogger, my entries get indexed, even those with images. As such they cannot be deleted from the my system.
Now the real truth comes down to, with googles system it is impossable to delist anything, at most they can only block access to the public. Can my site actually delist if it had to? Well you see, I claim the same thing as google. This is my software and I will tell you I can not remove indexed material, however I won't explain how my software works so there is no remedy.
Is this a bold move? Clearly it is I hope. I think that if its good for one its good for all. And believe me the first time I hear of a case where a person gets taken to court on the grounds they didn't remove materials which were put up prior to the law going into effect (I don't much care about the 1995) I will report google for being in violation.
Also might I suggest to any bloggers, blog to your visitors about the violations of their first amendment rigfhts. Most people don't care what happens to porn, but many care about constitutional rights being taken away.
So again I ask, what are the plans of others?
