Army investigates ActiveDuty.com
When it comes to porn, nothing's hotter than military man-on-man action. Except, of course, when the men involved turn out to be real-life recruits, such as several members of the Army's 82nd Airborne Division, currently under investigation for allegedly baring it all online at a gay porn website.
The condomless conundrum
Michael Shernoff, a gay, HIV-positive psychotherapist from New York, does not subscribe to the common belief that sexual risk-taking is a self-destructive pathology. In "Without Condoms: Unprotected Sex, Gay Men, and Barebacking," his new book, he argues that sexual risk is a universal by which most of us are tempted at some point.
Google stands firm
AOL caved. So did Yahoo! Even MSN gave in. But not Google. Its decision to deny a government request for Internet search records last week says a lot. Whether it speaks to the company's good nature, however, or its hidden motives, has yet to be determined.
Senators issue Net porn threats
If Paul Cambria's Congressional appearance last week is any indication, the porn industry is standing on shaky ground. In conversations with U.S. Senators about the Internet, Congress threw stone after stone at the First Amendment lawyer and the industry he represents. And Cambria just took it.
Feds subpoena Google porn data
The feds seem to believe in life after death -- for legislation, at least.

Alito broaches Internet porn
Abortion, executive privilege and privacy are among the most talked-about issues facing Judge Samuel Alito in his confirmation as a Supreme Court Justice. Members of Congress added another item to Alito's hot-list, however, when they asked him about Internet porn in hearings before the Senate Judiciary Committee last week.
Fired for being a porn star
Like anyone would be, Pete Ross was angry when he was fired from his job. But Ross' pink slip was far from typical. It came when his employer, a major U.S. airline, discovered that he also worked as a porn star. Now, months later, Ross is fighting back.
War on porn to escalate in '06
While most of the world celebrated the New Year last weekend with champagne and smooches, the U.S. Senate and its Republican leaders marked the occasion by donning armor with which to fight a fierce war on porn in 2006.
Judge weakens proof of age regs
The much criticized amendments to Regulation 2257 which would vastly broaden who must keep proof of age records for porn performers was slightly weakened by a ruling on Wednesday.
