Porno popups - Big deal?

You guys recall report of school teacher was busted for 40 years in prison because of some spyware caused porno popups during class session.

Big deal, we all know all popups are caused by adware & spyware or even cookies & scripts that cause automatic popups by just visiting legitimate web sites. And porno popups are no exception, they are just another popups with porno pictures.

Even I gets porn popups just visiting some blogs and webcasting sites.
