Gray areas of the law I've always wondered about get tested: "A Canadian court this week began considering whether live images of <link url="http://www.apbnews.com:80/newscenter/breakingnews/2000/02/16/netsex0216_01.html">erotic acts relayed over the Internet in exchange for money constitute prostitution</link>." The reason for the hullabaloo in the first place appears to be the lack of age restrictions that, say, a strip club can impose. I'm not a lawyer, but that doesn't sound like it's a legal basis for differentiating between performance and prostitution, that sounds like a bad excuse.
