Are the Dangers of Internet Pornography Exaggerated Are the Dangers of Internet Child Pornography Exaggerated' The Issue Is a part of society over-reacting to the accessibility of pornographic material on the Internet' Is pornographic material as easily accessible as some believe' Julia Wilkins Opinion Julia Wilkins is an author of several books and articles on educating children. Wilkins claims there are people in our society who create moral panic when referring to availability of pornographic material on the Internet. Wilkins defines moral panic, in part, as an overwhelming amount of public concern, usually out of proportion to the actual priority of the issue, which society views as a threat. For instance, Wilkins refers to Time magazine cover article of July 3, 1995 which headlines read “On Screen near You: Cyberporn”. This article was based on a Law Journal paper, which did not receive peer review prior to its publication in Time and was written by Marty Rimm at Georgetown University on the subject of marketing pornography on the super highway. The article portrayed the Internet as a way for pornography to be easily accessed by anyone who could turn on a computer.
