Weblogs 'need content warnings'
Filed in archive Newsdesk 2.0 by S.M. Schrama on April 10, 2007

Readers should be warned when they are reading blogs that may contain "crude language".He came up with this code after the threats made to Kathy Sierra on blogs.
Although I think it's crap - surfing the internet has it's negative sides - I do understand. But this is not going to help. Even if it becomes a law to put the warning on any blog worldwide, it will just be something like parentl advisory on records and cd's : every artist will put it up if required and some will be Proud of it. We need something else. We need a cop that picks up someone who threatens a person and puts him in jail for a couple of hundreds of years.
