I worked at a large, state run health care facility several years ago. It was part of a large system that ran several facilities throughout the State. Most of the patient documentation, supply functions, inter departmental and inter facility communication functions were computerized. Previous to that, computers were used for an even more broad spectrum of functions but the system had been modified to block Internet access. The reason this was done was because it was discovered that a huge amount of total computer time was devoted to accessing and down loading hard core pornography. A large portion of this computer usage was identified as originating within the facility police department. A lot of people were disciplined. Too many were involved and at too high a level, for dismissal to be an option.
I don't know why anyone is surprised that people spend a lot of time at work accessing pornography if the ability to do so exists. It's human nature. I'm not saying it should be allowed. I'm not saying steps shouldn't be taken to stop it. I'm just saying what is.
The Pope in Rome downloads porn.
Prince Charles in England is totally addicted to it.
I'm sure Barry O takes an occasional peek at the bookmarked sites left behind by W, now and then, before moving on to heterosexual sites.
My favorite quote on the subject was by the Who's Peter Townsend. When questioned by the authorities about a hard drive he possessed full of Kiddie Porn, he stated that he needed to familiarize himself with it before stepping up to lead the fight against this evil, which he was totally committed to. Hey, I believe him. Don't you?
