Not mine this time; it appears a sister archive is starting at MIT. :) The following posts were made to a CMU newsgroup, graffiti.bboard-censorship. -Declan ------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Martin Rimm Subject: Internet-Pornography Study I am part of a team of researchers at Carnegie Mellon University. We have completed a large, systematic study of pornography on the Information Superhighway, to include both the Usenet, and adult BBS. We have developed powerful software to analyze 917,410 images which were downloaded 6.4 million times. We are looking for a journal (preferably academic) which can publish our findings in a relatively short period of time. Could someone please recommend a journal which deals with Internet public policy issues? This is a broad study and it has been quite a challenge to reduce it to a single discipline, which is the downside of most journals. We raise many legal, privacy and first ammendment issues, but we also deal with the sociology of sexual deviance and the (possible) degradation of women, which could be gender studies. Martin Rimm Carnegie Mellon University Note: Someone will likely examine the above numbers and challenge them without listening carefully to our methodology. I would respectfully ask that you assume for now that our methodology is sound, until you have a chance to examine it upon publication. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Sun, 6 Nov 1994 14:03:25 -0500 (EST) From: Martin Rimm X-Andrew-Message-Size: 342+0 Content-Type: X-BE2; 12 If-Type-Unsupported: alter To: Bulletin Board Administration Subject: Re: The CMU administration has not read the report!
