A Ballwin man who says he is a “self-employed porn webmaster” has agreed to be more forthright about what he’s doing. The agreement has been forced by the Federal Trade Commission, which has sued Brian Westby after 46,000 people complained he had tricked them into opening sexually explicit messages. The FTC says he sent e-mails with innocuous subject lines and refused to let recipients un-subscribe. Westby can still run his website, but he is under a court order to stop using deceptive practices.
