How come there is no publishing authority on the internet?

I can go to millions of sites that have illegal and offensive content on the internet.
I feel betrayed as someone who has spent thousands of dollars on a computer and 1000s of hours working on my computer and browsing the internet because there does not exist security measures to keep dangerous content and people from providing content that I would otherwise object to on my computer.
Thus I do not understand why companies like microsoft who hold a huge share of computer industry do not take responsibility for the safety of its customers. Like wise I am sceptical of companies like google who claim to be a reputable company/corporation however they index and provide links to all these illegal sites I am talking about.
I am aware of the existence of content filters however I don't believe that having to pay for my security after I have shelled out thousands of dollars for a computer supposedly to be an expression of modern technology that does not have the capacity to maintain decency and appropriateness.
If websites were to be subject to censorship it would make the internet more useful and ultimately safe - it would be a simple task to employ a team of people to maintain a database of active websites and to review and censor material based on its content. This would make the internet much more viable as a universal tool for modern day business and communication because illegal and deviant material would not be able to be accessed beyond the regulations that need to be developed.
Google is a perfect example of indexing gone wrong - there is no censorship - any review of websites is pointless because you can toggle access easily through the browser. I believe that internet browsers should be regulated to censor the material accessed. I believe as a user that I have the right not to be subjected to the abuses of evil and degenerate people on the internet. I finally conclude that access to such disgusting content should be available through hacking out a programs default security and voiding of rights of that user to any protection from dangerous material.
I believe the internet should be censored because there is so much non-constructive material on the internet and it serves as a distraction and detriment to a person's well being.
A user has the right to their own security and dignity - such development would be worthwhile because it will help to save countless people who would otherwise have to go through disturbing experineces such as I have with internet browsers...
Thanks for your time :)
indexing and publishing !!!

How is that related to Firefox support?
Sorry, this is not a forum for entertaining a discussion of what is and isn't right about the internet. The tools for blocking objectionable content are out there, it is up to the individual user to use those tools, or not. Bottom line is freedom of choice, and this country defends that for all citizens - pervs included.

  • Monitor: How come there is a dark spot on the screen?

    When I turn on my HP touchsmart 610 monitor there is almost like a shadow on the screen. What is the cause of this?

    I'm not quite sure what it is you're seeing, but if it's a Terminal window (click on the window and see if you see the "Terminal" menu at the very top left of the screen) you can close it just like any other application - go to the Terminal menu and click "Quit Terminal".
    If that's not it, it's possible you're seeing a Voiceover border - go to System Preferences, Universal Access, click Voiceover and turn it off if it's on.

  • HT204053 how come there is another apple id appears when im about to update the applications that i have downloaded?

    how come there is another apple id appears when im about to update the applications that i have downloaded?

    When a stranger's Apple ID appears on your Mac in conjunction with an update for an app that you have never installed, you have a pirated app on your Mac. The pirated app is not the app calling for the update. This pirated app has been cracked with the MAS receipt from usually a free app, often Angry Birds or Twitter, acquired by the person whose Apple ID you see.
    You may not have realized that it was a pirated app when you installed it. You may have believed that it was a trail version or a "free" version.
    All MAS apps have a MAS receipt in their app bundle. Check any app acquired from the MAS. Right click on the app's icon in your Apps folder and choose Show package contents. In the Contents folder is a _MASReceipt folder and in that folder is the coded MAS receipt. It has the Apple ID of the MAS account that bought/acquired the app from the MAS. It is that receipt that the MAS uses to alert you that an app has an update. There would not be a notice of an update with someone else's Apple ID showing in the MAS on your Mac, if there was not an app with a receipt from this person's account somewhere on your Mac.
    Download the free app FindAnyFile (FAF);
    http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/
    This app is easier to use and seems to be more powerful than Spotlight. Open FAF and in the box type _MASReceipt and press Find. It should come up with a list of every app on the Mac with a MAS receipt. Compare the apps with receipts in FAF's list with your purchased apps list in the Mac App Store. The odd app out should be the pirated app.

  • How come there is no "Safety Lock" icon when you are accessing your personal bank info?

    How come there is no "safety lock" icon picture in the tool bar when your accessing personal banking info. On other browsers, it shows that the Internet line is secure (the Lock icon) is in the address line. There's nothing on using Firefox.

    Padlock is no longer part of Firefox; it was removed beginning in Firefox 4. The padlock shows that there is a secure connection but does not supply additional information. You could have made a typographical error and still have been connected to a secure connection. The padlock was replaced in Firefox 3 with the Site Identity Button. Familiarize yourself with the Site Identity Button at the left end of the Location Bar:

    You can install this add-on if you wish:

    You are using Firefox 5. The most current version of Firefox is 8. Consider updating as Firefox 5 is not longer updated/maintained and contains security issues that will not be corrected.

  • How come although iPads are getting more powerful, the iOS apps from apple are so mediocre and just not that great? We spend all this money for the latest ipad and all we get is these $5 video and music apps from apple. Why create the iOS platform and onl

    How come although iPads are getting more powerful, the iOS apps from apple are so mediocre and just not that great? We spend all this money for the latest ipad and all we get is these $5 video and music apps from apple. Why create the iOS platform and only offer so so apps like IMovie and GarageBand ? While other developers are offering much better apps like pinnacle studio for video, Cubasis and Auria for music production, apple has not showed much growth in terms of innovation. While there's nothing wrong with making an app like GarageBand where "anyone " can make a song, how about something for real musicians or an app not so basic as it get for video editing? After spending 0ver $700 on an ipad I'd be willing to spend more than $5 for a better video or audio app.

    First, try a system reset although I can't give you any confidence.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • I don't have a DSL or cable modem to access the Internet ... just a mobile WiFi (there is no cable available at our house). How do I connect my Time Capsule to the Internet via the mobile WiFi?

    I don't have a DSL or cable modem to access the Internet ... just a mobile WiFi (there is no cable available at our house and the mobile WiFi is our only option). How do I connect my Time Capsule to the Internet via the mobile WiFi?

    LOL!!
    I am in Australia and the ISP... I think both the main ones would fit your description to a T.. big T in particular.
    Your router is really unsuitable.. if it is only wireless and no ethernet.. just buy an ethernet one.
    Do a search on ebay.. 3g router.
    But you can get the TC to join a wireless network.
    It is a non-standard setup that Apple will not support.. the option is hidden.
    If you are on Lion download the 5.6 utility. Go to the wireless set up page and hold down the option key whilst selecting wireless mode.. a new option, join will appear. You can then put in the ssid and passkey of the 3g router.
    But please note the end result of this setup..
    very slow speed. The TC is now a second wireless hop from your clients.. this will halve the speed.
    In this mode the ethernet are deactived.. for reasons only Apple know, they decided you should not use ethernet when doing this.

  • How come an exclamation point is next to the song how do i fix this

    how come an exclamation point is next to the song how do i fix this

    The exclamation mark means that iTunes is unable to find the track on your HD. If you click on it a dialogue box should appear inviting you to locate the file manually. You should only have to do that once.
    In my experience this usually happens if the downloaded file is moved to another location on the HD, if the name is changed or if the file has been deleted.
    I have always moved my iTunes files to other locations on the desktop and de-selected the"Copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library". That option is found under the Advanced tab of the Preferences.
    I move the folders into  iTunes from the the new locations on the desktop.
    It doesn't have to be done that way of course, it's just the way I like to do it.

  • How come I cannot update my iTunes to the latest version?

    How come I cannot update my iTunes to the latest version?
    Whenever I click the setup icon, nothing happens.
    Or when I click "Check for updates" in iTunes, nothing happens too.
    Can anyone tell me what's wrong? And what should I do?

    Many thanks.
    It seems unlikely that McAfee is causing the damage here. But it may be interpreting the installer damage as indicating an unsafe package. (The damage is causing the file to not be properly digitally signed.)
    Perhaps try downloading and saving a copy of the installer to a different PC. (If you're on a 32-bit Windows system, try to download on a different 32-bit Windows system.) Copy the iTunesSetup.exe installer to an external hard-drive, or a large-enough thumb drive or burn it to a CD-R. Carry the installer back to your PC, copy the installer to your hard drive. (Don't run the install from the ExHD, thumb or CD-R.) Start the install by doubleclicking the iTunesSetup.exe file.

  • How do I access my time capsule over the internet

    How do I access my time capsule over the internet. I've already set it up to share over WAN, but I have ATT so my TC is connected to the router provided by ATT can I still access my TC via the internet even though its not directly connected to the Ethernet?

    The TC should be in bridge mode.. not setup to share over wan.. that will never work. That is assuming you haven't bridged the ATT router.
    Once you bridge the TC see if you can setup BTMM using icloud settings in the TC. As per the Apple docos.. here.
    You should also be able to directly access the TC since you have a router with dyndns client at a guess.. the setup is simply forward port 548 to the TC.
    Google search this.. there is huge number of resources available. eg
