The Delaware Democrat is proposing a 25 percent tax on the purchase of pornographic material online. The collected tax money would go to a fund to help police prosecute online child pornographers. The provision is part of the Internet Safety and Child Protection Act. In addition to the fund, the bill would require online pornographers to use age-verification software to block children's access. Carper says the bill will keep kids away from X-rated material.
