Like TV you maybe able to force people to make cancon available on line but if they hated it on TV they are going to hate it on the web as well. Given the choice to click on it or not most people will choose not to. The only way you can change that is to use cancon like a commercial that you have to watch before you can get to the content you want like those stupid flash based commercials. But if you do that every one just clicks their way to a different site. It is long past time to get over the idea of trying to force cancon onto people. Make some thing compelling and people will come to you.
