Sex in the Net!

By .......... for Mr...........

     A social and ethical essay task, designed to provide students with a
broader insight into both the Internet and computer ethics.
     Since the beginning of time, men and women have fantasised over naked
bodies.  Pornography has always been a part of life and yet it has never been so
readily available as what it is now.  Erotic stories, explicit pictures, XXX-
rated films and modern day magazines, are all part of the stimulus material
which is known as "pornography" or as it is legally put, "obscenity."  Is it
ethically right for our children to be looking at this erotic material at such
an early age? Do we have a twisted sense of morals if we support pornography? Or
is it just a natural part of life that should be nurtured and encouraged?
     These questions and more are springing to peoples lips as we enter the
technological age.  The age of the Internet.  Never before has pornography been
so readily available. Through mail-order, at secret places around the schoolyard,
or simply down at the local newsagent or video store, pornography can be
purchased in any form or media.  I know children, some as young as ten years,
who have an unlimited supply of pornography.  They have been exposed to it from
an early age and it has become an addiction like smoking or drinking.  Part of
the problem is that censorship laws are not enforced. Some newsagents will sell
a twelve year old, pornography, (legal age of 18) but will not sell them a
packet of cigarettes (legal age of 16 until June 1994).  The obvious derivative
from this statement, is that fines and punishments for selling pornography to
underage persons, are not high enough.  So why don't we raise them?  The answer
to this question can be found on the screen of every computer in the world.  The
Internet, or as one person put it, "The closest thing to true anarchy that has
ever existed."
     How is one to censor the Internet when it is literally impossible?  What
is the use of placing fines for copying pornography when it is impossible to
tell the age of the user.  How can one even trace the user when there are
twenty-five billion members and it is impossible to follow them all.  How can we
delete the pornography when a new batch arrives every day and it is impossible
to stop it.
     Another point which makes censorship difficult is the fact that
censorship laws have only recently being required.  In England for instance,
censorship laws have, for hundreds...
