They claim is biased but is it really biased? How do they know? I think this is just making up excuses so they can collect more data. They get good enough data from the people that have volunteered it. I don't know what makes them thin

Sigh.. I wish legislators would stop telling us what kind of porn we are or aren't allowed to watch. For one thing default porn filter installed on all laptops doesn't make any kind of sense given most of the population is over 18
