I have difficulty reconciling the community of creative professionals who are skilled enough to create the environment that amazing works of cinema emerge from and the individuals who make comments like this. Are they really so unimaginative that their solution is "filter anything that remotely resembles sketchy"?
That philosophy applied to a city like New York would prevent people from entering the city solely on the accusation that someone at one time maybe broke the law. On what planet would someone think that the value gained by implementing a policy like this would outweigh the potential for abuse and for beautiful content (read: potential inspiration for new movies) to be blacked out by a censorship screen? This doesn't even speak to the massive PR debacle that always erupts from comments like this, be it about a VCR or "the cloud."
While we're on this topic, what's the definition of insanity again?
