so - if we combine labeling plus a thing that makes you sign your name and input your date of birth before you can enter our sites, is there more that can realistically be done? and do we have any reason to believe that that will work? i used to see the ticket sellers turn away kids going to r rated movies fairly regularly...
i like promoting teaching parents to USE filtering. it's free, it's fast, and it would take care of the problem if the government would put 1/10th the effort into promoting it that they do into making laws regarding constitutionally protected free speech. put parents in control and make it the law that they use those controls.
