I wish so too. But I also wish it is safe for those who don't have professional or personal help you are mentioning and for those who come accross this innocently and are hooked for good.

I see the point you have here and I agree with you there. I am also against aurthodoxy but here we have to see what they are asking for not who is asking for.

Dio:
I understand your point of view. However, again, I do not feel it is the government's job to control what sites we visit. The child you mention should get help from his family, friends, and perhaps seek professional help. Regarding the law proposal in Israel, as I write in my post, it was proposed by the ultra orthodox group who is merely trying to gain political power by creating this law. There are so many things already controlled by this group in Israel. I hope web surfing won't become a part of that list.

Thanks for reading the post and your comment. And I respect your opinion.

Let us look at it this way: I know an uneducated father and mother who have a college going son. Parents have bought him a computer and he can connect to internet from home.

Unfortunately, he gets into porno addiction and remains online at nights while his parents think their son is working hard.

Who should be responsible for this? Who can save the boy?

Let me add again that I am against sensor in any form but let us not make the internet unsafe. Let us not give them a chance for waywardness. let us make it difficult at least. No?

Dio:
I read your post and I must say I disagree. You write: "I am decidedly anti any type of sensor in any form whatsoever but the governments should enact strict laws against creation, hoisting and distributing the contents that are immoral and harmful for the humanity."

I am sorry but I do not believe it is the government's job to censor websites that they find immoral. It is up to the people to decide. In this case, up to the parents to educate their kids about these issues. Any content censorship as far as I am concerned is a mark of a dictatorship, not a democracy.

Think twice. May be there is something good in this bad law!
