Dan Gillmor blogs today:

You've probably read about the HIV scare in the porn business. The San Francisco Chronicle suggests that the adult-entertainment industry look to lessons learned in San Francisco during the 1980s. And an industry-news site (note: this site may not be work-safe) takes an even sterner approach, urging a massive database tracking just about everything an individual actor may have done.

French porn director John Root now has a
bl0g 11/16/2003 11:36 AM
Famous French adult film director John B. Root, nee John Guillore, has launched a self-described "sexblog" about his life and the porn biz: Inkorrekt, the Diary of a Pornographer. Not long ago, Root was the author of an open letter protesting a French ban on TV porn organized by right-wing and "family values"groups.

"Porn's subject matter is physical love, a theme that has produced countless masterpieces in painting, in sculpture and in literature," wrote Root. "If celluloid sex has never succeeded in hoisting itself to the rank of a cinematographic or televisual genre, it is because we have denied it the right to be economically viable. We wouldn't be having this debate if porn was what it should be: joyous, well-made, aphrodisiac art, respectful of its actors and its audience, portraying real people and making sense of its subject matter."

"Public relations should first understand that to the extent that its art is a form of 'spin'--whether it's reasonable spin, accepted spin, good spin, bad spin, terrible spin--it is selling a service for which there is less and less value, and less mind is paid to it. Spin was possible in the era of few-to-many media, and a small number of gatekeepers who could be spun...."

Blog-detectives tackle suspected Mexican
child-porn recruitment site

Blog-detectives tackle suspected Mexican
child-porn recruitment site 07/24/2004 06:10 PM
Eduardo Arcos, editor of the Spanish-language blog ALT1040, is conducting an online investigation into a website suspected of recruiting teenage girls in Mexico for child porn. He's soliciting help from other bloggers, and using the "comment" feature in his blog as a way to exchange info with concerned citizens throughout the blogosphere. Together they're collecting data, with the apparent goal of revealing who's behind the suspect site -- and seeing to it that appropriate action is taken to protect potential victims. Here's my clunky attempt at translating Arcos' summary post:

A site called TV-whores with a theme and intentions that are very clear, contains the following text: Girls from 13 - 19 years of age: earn thousands of pesos simply by taking photographs. More information here. (...)

The page in question offers thousands of pesos to 13-19-year-old girls for taking digital photos. You don't have to be naked, you can be in a bikini or underwear, it says... but it's more than suspicious."
