Quick scenario: it is 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and the kids beat you home. Do you know what they are doing online... after they turned on the videogame console?Probably not... but perhaps you should.
Therefore, it should not be surprising that you just might find a little - or should I say wiitle - new report circulating online that just might clue you in on some creative solutions to making sure it does not happen to your kids, coming from the most unlikely of organizations. According to videogame industry blog Kotaku, the Corona, Calif.-based right-wing Christian group Ethur has issued a public service announcement of sorts, hoping to increase awareness of the need to protect all points of online access that children use to go online and browse the Web.
In particular, the organization is calling specific attention to the Nintendo (Pink Sheets: NTDOY) Wii, advising parents across the nation of the popular motion-controlled videogame console's Web browser software and advising them to limit their kids' access to inappropriate websites using the console's built-in parental controls. Ethur member and owner of the online pornography awareness website ThePornTalk.com Mike Foster compares such unprotected access points to his personal concept of a network of what CrunchGear.com describes as "gateways to sex, debauchery, AIDS, and, worst of all, becoming a liberal." He likens this to the invention of the zipper - as well as other things, which he personally refers to as "devilish creations."
