I want a Miracle Japanese Diet Secret that can lower my mortgage rates, make my woo-woo 3 to 4 inches larger, allow me to make over $5000 dollars from home each week, while at the same time showing me an 18 year old stripping on her birthday.

Then...

Then spam would be OK.

stop child porn, stop ppl getting ripped off

iraq would just get annexed by iran


That would be a great solution.  If Iran and the majority of Iraqi's are pleased with it, then why shouldn't they do it?

Bootlegging music/movies/software etc. - Not for the consumers sake, but for the music-industry and software-firms sake.

Illegal porn - Child porn, animal porn, (legal in some countries though), violence orientated porn etc.

Dangerous information - Bomb-recipes, secret information, other terror activities can be spread.

Advertising - Advertisers flooding the internet with annoying commercials/ads.

Criminal activity such as people planning robberies, ordering homicides online, mafia -activity, websites enocouraging violence etc.

Desinformation - Sites denying historical events, such as holocaust, spreading racist information presented as the truth. etc.

Virus/Hacker-threats - There must be security to avoid such hostile attacks.
