Study: 1% of All Websites Are Pornographic;

According to the findings of a U.S. government study, about 1% of all websites indexed by Google and Microsoft are sexually explicit, the Associated Press reported. The study was conducted in association with a court case challenging the government's 1998 Child Online Protection Act (COPA), which would have compelled explicit site owners to secure proof of age before allowing Americans to enter their sites.

The study also found that 6% of all searches yield at least one explicit site, and the "most popular" searches returned an explicit site result nearly 40% of the time. However, about 50% of all explicit sites are hosted outside the U.S., where the COPA law would not be enforceable.
