What do you mean? CornHub already exists

I clicked absentmindedly.. luckily it seems mostly harmless.
Would you really have been permanently damaged if it were a porn site? :)

I think it's very funny by the way :) Love the idea

Probably more out of caution around workplace-mandated anti-virus/spyware. I don't know if they're sophisticated enough to catch rhymes but it makes sense for general apprehension to surface.
Corn Hub: "The Internet is for Corn."
Corn, corn, corn...
Maybe YOU think corn is harmless, but most of the country doesn’t. It’s not funny/ a joking matter!
Loss of a job can be permanently damaging in some cases.
That doesn't happen if you click on the wrong link once though. I've got the "Adult content is forbidden" Zscaler page many times at work and I didn't even get a call from HR :) Ususally miscategorised but still.

And why would they, because if you get this warning you didn't get to see porn, so it doesn't work. There is no point to keep on trying anyway.
