Interesting piece of trivia. Number one concern on the Internet is Pornography(according to this particular poll), and guess what the courts do this past week? Protect it. Internet gambling doesn't show up on the list at all, although that could fall under "Inappropriate access for kids". What's my point you ask? Even though large groups of people may see something as "bad", and inappropriate, (1) the courts are protecting it, and (2) people seem to want regulation, not censorship. IMO, this is a positive indicator that shows it is only a matter of time before Internet gambling is regulated. 16. What do you think is the WORST thing about the Internet? Pornography, Inappropriate access for kids, Privacy, Security concerns, Hard to access/download, Lack of regulation, Scams, Information overload, Junk mail, Too much advertising, Too easy to conceal identity, Unreliable information, Other. cbs.marketwatch.com
