Sex: Flight Attendants Against Internet Porn
Posted September 18, 2008 6:57 PM
I guess there are limits to flying the friendly skies. Wired posted an article recently that noted just weeks after American Airlines began to offer in-flight wireless internet, a number of passengers and attendants have been complaining about passengers perusing inappropriate sites. It seems tricky to me. Everyone has different thresholds for what could be construed as racy versus downright pornographic. Clearly if a hungover college kid from University of Ariz...er, University of Anywhere decides to get caught up with the latest news on The Superficial, and he's sitting next to an 80 year old lady - she could possibly see it as pornographic material. But isn't there a difference between NSFW and straight up hardcore video of people bumping uglies on youporn?
Now, I think in reality, I'm for having some type of wireless internet filters added, because I can't imagine anything worse then my wife flying cross country next to some sleeze bag with his hands in his pockets while he watches 5 hours of uncut and unrated undressed people. All right, maybe I'm secretly worried she'd like it and become part of the mile high club without me even in the plane. It's tough to draw the line on what's going to be considered G or PG material, so they have their hands full. We're sure glad that the only decisions we have to make are what's going to make the gifts for men hall of fame for the week.
