Or, er, maybe they wouldn't want to be associated with it out of other motivations, such as common decency?

I'm confused. If it is the photos that you consider indecent, surely you should be taking issue with the publicity machine that produced them? As far as I can see, this website has done little more than add a spurious connection to semiconductor physics.
Why can't you take issue with both?
Both of what? Both the publicity machine for producing the photos and the website for republishing them? Or both the photos themselves and the spurious connection to semiconductor physics?
