That's alot of porn.:v:

Gotta love unnecessary information. I know I do!
Thought it would be a lot higher than that
Doesn't seem much, I mean it's not beyond our technical knowledge to pull off such a stunt of co-ordinated tree-murder.

If we cut all the spam, porn, ads, shocking sites, repeats, the book will be 3 times smaller.
