Wait until they try this with gun porn.
If so, please click HERE to schedule a mandatory Government visit of your property regarding your firearms.
This is all just routine....thank you!
If you (or your kids) look at porn sites, how can you be sure your haven’t downloaded a 17 1/2 year old or just slightly under aged “child”?
Remember the Tracy Lords incident? She made all kinds of porn while she was underaged. When she became legal, she announced to the world her real age making all the copies of her movies she had participated in “child porn”.
Ok, so you take your laptop to someone’s house you don’t particularly like, hook it into the Internet and ........
Another thing. Website servers record the URL that was clicked on, not the words on the link. For government officials and other weakminded individuals, a link can say “click here to buy apples”, but the link can take you to a site that sells oranges. You don’t know where it’s taking you to. It’s possible to fool the user. The only record on the server will be of the URL that the user actually went to, not the words that the user saw.
Whats to stop sneaky wireless parasites from getting the innocent router owner arrested?
Answer: nothing.
The whole sting stinks to high heaven from a libertarian and constitutional perspective.
OMG! This isn’t even about buttons or ads. It is about HYPERLINKS!
Now this DOES scare the crap out of me. Imagine going to sites (like this thread) where the hyperlink has nothing to do with the text and you get used to that paradigm, and then you go to one of these sites and think it is a joke!!!
This is incredibly Orwellian.
I’ll bet the Chicoms use this technique.
THIS MAN WAS NOT ARRESTED FROM CONTENT FOUND AT HIS HOUSE ON A SEARCH WARRENT!
From the article:
Vosburgh was charged with violating federal law, which criminalizes "attempts" to download child pornography with up to 10 years in prison. Last November, a jury found Vosburgh guilty on that count, and a sentencing hearing is scheduled for April 22, at which point Vosburgh could face three to four years in prison.
And no, I'm not defending perverts.

“Claims of entrapment have been made in similar cases, but usually do not get very far,”
Possibly my memory is faulty but didn’t claims of entrapment fly quite well in ABSACM?

Here is another problem with this scheme - Botnets - robot networks. Your computer is hijacked by a hacker and it becomes part of a network that you can’t control or may not even know about.

I was doing an internet search the other day for something totally innocent. Can’t remember what is was—think it might have been a cake recipe—something related to my kid’s birthday party. Anyway, I got into some horrible website by innocently clicking a link that I thought was the information I was looking for. I don’t think it was anything illegal but from a moment’s glance I could tell it wasn’t what I had been looking for.
