Craigslist made him millions (yes, yes, we all know the story about how he wants to keep CL intentionally small, spurning potential hundreds of millions in profits - but still, he's a millionaire). Part of his money-making strategy is charging prostitutes to post sex ads.
So he can use "I'm a socially inept geek" excuse as long as he wants, I think it's only fair that he is asked some tough questions about it.
ISPs have made millions. Part of their money-making strategy is charging child pornographers to upload child pornography.
So they can use the "I'm a common carrier" excuse as long as they want, but I think it's only fair that they are asked some tough questions about it. Why can't a team of lawyers review every packet flowing over the public Internet to make sure that nothing "bad" is going on? It sounds simple to me, someone who loves children but has no idea how the Internet or computers work.
Sounds pretty dumb, doesn't it? Why is Craigslist not held to the same (non-) standard as the ISPs? Why don't we just censor the entire Internet For The Children!?
Your ISP is doing no such thing (well, unless it's Comcast)
