hi all,

i have been thinking about this for couple of days now. thinking about how am i goin to put it here. but here goes...

we all know that internet is used to do a lot of activities both legal and illegal. internet has grown into our lives, gone are the days when one wants to refer to something, one opens books and reference materials. all someone needs to do is google it or any other search engines one is comfortable with.
and we all know that we can buy almost anything under the sun from the internet and heck, have it delivered to our door step.
now in comparisions with our real lives- we have shops, internet has websites.
which is bringing me to the question i want to ask.

there are good (clean) sites and there are bad (those underground) sites, most of them illegal. they come for a couple of months and vanish. some even make replicas of the real sites to get the ids and the passwords to the real sites( some here have witnessed those here)

now coming to the question (finally)

are there any internet cops or police who monitor whats goin on

couple of months ago i had seen this movie "40 days 40 nights" where this girl was working in this porn control thing.

how does one land a job like that "sit down and surf porn sites" and get paid for it.

what i mean to ask is-

1) we know there are organisations out there who are surfing the net and shutting down these illegal sites ( not only the porn sites).
2) are they government run or private organisation. ( after googling about it, found out that its mostly that most countries have a part of police force dedicated to this)
3) what qualification does one need to get into this kind of thing. as this is a security related, i guess that it needs some major security or law course. but which one
4) how do we find out about openings in jobs in such a field. if there are any. i tried searching on the net but couldnt come up with anything concrete.


before i finish let me clear the ambiguity here.
am not searching for something that lets me surf porn sites
am looking for something like "search illegal sites and shut them down "

most of the people here are into security, so they will have some idea what i am trying to ask.

just point me in the right direction and i will search there

cheers
