  "Telus, Canada's second-largest telecommunications carrier has
started selling pornography to its cellular subscribers. The service
allows subscribers with mobile browsers to purchase both
photographic and video adult-oriented content from Telus, at an average
of CD$4 per download. Telus decided to introduce the service after
noticing that there existed a certain 'segment of the population that is

interested in that content' from review of the mobile Web browsing
habits
of their subscribers 'on an aggregate level.' They are the first
telecommunications company in Canada to offer such content. A Telus
spokesman said: 'We're fairly certain that if our competitors in Canada
haven't launched it, they will soon. Same in the US.'"
