You know, maybe I'm not really thinking so much of a law against people 
putting up junk sites, but rather a petition process by which someone 
who has a real site to usurp a junk site.  And I don't simply mean 
"whoever site is better," but really that it must be determined to be a 
non-site.  But just like spam in email, I can see how this would just 
lead to more sophisticated techniques for making sites look legitimate.  
I don't know if that would be a good thing or not.
