Bennett Haselton has been the coordinator of Peacefire.org since its inception in 1996. Peacefire opposes censorship that targets Internet users under 18, and maintains that profanity and smut on the Internet are not, in fact, "dangerous" to anybody, as most lawmakers and blocking software companies have made them out to be. Peacefire publishes research into different Internet censorship programs and technologies, their shortcomings, possible misrepresentations by the companies selling them, and (most popular) how to get around them.
