<<<If you misspell Yahoo and instead hit hahoo.com you will find yourself at a sex site. Not especially surprising I suppose; one way to deal with this matter would be to eliminate Yahoo and then less people would find there way to Hahoo by mistake?>>> Actually hahoo.com takes you too madonnas.com which is a silly audio/visual entertainment news home page. But I like your idea. So if you key in www.whitehouse.com and it takes you to a sex site can we eliminate the White House? Hmm, maybe your idea isn't so bad after all! But let's straighten something out. I don't intend to make this an issue of censorship but rather of appearance. Regardless of whether you are responsible for content or not the fact still remains if a company provides a means to display particular content and their advertisers display such content then they get their name tied to said content. My issue isn't whether it is right, wrong or indifferent but rather is it a smart thing to do?
