did you feel that?

That was the middle aged men of America doing a collective shudder.

;)

Why do people think there is anonymity on the Internet when they sign up for all sorts of things.

[Thrownatbirth]

Another reminder that porn in the woods was far superior.

Sign up? Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free.

[Izzy Dunne]

Why is it that my first thought was Hillary?

[max americana]

So BILL CLINTON’S account has been stolen?

Who in their right mind would sign up for porn sites????

...when there are so many that don’t require it.

...so I’ve been told.

[utherdoul]

.... damnit, well my credit cards need to get “lost” and reissued again.

[MarineBrat]

Here's some saltpeter for any porn addicts out there. :)

[evad]

I’m sure there will be some libertarian types on this board insenced about this invasion of privacy, but my first reaction was: LOL.

Husband, picks up ringing phone: Hello? Police: Yes, we're doing an investigation where your user data may have been compromised on oiledupwomen.com Husband: Uummmm...well, it's okay. Police: Pardon? Husband: It's okay, I'll just change names and move. Police: But sir... Wife, calls out from other room: "Honey? Who was that on the phone?" Husband: Telemarketer.

I would think that all of the random pop-ups (no pun intended), cookies, viruses, etc. would be enough of a deterrent to online porn for men with spouses/familes.

[sure_fine]

sounds like some govt BS to me, they have been wanting to shut down porn sites but haven’t got the legal ability to do so, so, hit them with business loss and let them erode

fine by me, but BS is BS

[Calpernia]

Hillary was my second thought.

There is a candidate in the race that is affiliated with a company that offers net tracking technologies.

Sentinel Software, Inc.
SolutionsAmerica, (Nevis), Inc.
E-Commerce Transaction Services, Ltd.
OneStop.com, Inc.

And it looks like one of those ‘may’ be affiliated with Too Much Media.

People got personal information stolen from internet pornography sites?...How can that be? (extreme sarc.)

[vox humana]

...so I’ve been told.

A likely excuse...you probably belong to dozens of sites! LOL

[Calpernia]

Adult sites could include alternative lifestyles too.
