If the indexing of all Web sites is not possible, why do search engines index
hundreds of thousands of adult sites (“Lost in cyberspace”, 28 June, p 12)?
Shouldn’t academic criteria take precedence over adult sites? I do not oppose
sex sites but I am sure that if search engines limited their sex site listings,
then some entrepreneur would establish a search engine that focused on those
sites.
If this happened, HotBot and Alta Vista users could use their search engines
more effectively, while anyone wishing to access adult material could use the
specialist search engine.
