Actually, I believe that something like this, although maybe not quite so detailed, is already required under federal law.
But I have no doubt that the additional details are there for harassment. And I’m not crazy about coming up with a “national registry” of anyone, with the exception of convicted criminals.

He’s afraid that the Feds will catch all of the Traci Lords-types that porn still uses with fake IDs.
Will Paris Hilton be making the list? Pamela and Tommy Lee?
If a sexually explicit video is released by “mistake”, is it any less pornographic? Wouldn’t there still be the pressing question of “how old are these people?” (How old was Paris at the time of that video, anyway?)
I wonder how many people have video-taped or photographed their own sex-capades for posterity. Imagine the fallout if the war on porn ever escalates to the point where the war on drugs is currently at.
This could get very ugly.
The porno-patriots assure us that they don't promote child porn, but then at the same time they have a problem with enforcing the laws against exactly that. It's really no surprise that FR's "ACLU conservatives would come out in favor of child pornography. The "libertarian" ACLU also represents NAMBLA. They don't want the government to spy on anyone, from foreign terrorists to illegal aliens to child pornographers.
OK, stand up, Ron.
