    I reckon this will end up with a lot of previously law abiding citizens who are into bdsm etc being taken to court to be prosecuted with badly written legislation that is highly open to interpretation.

    You will get perfectly decent women and men ending up as registered sex offenders and their choice in pornography will be the subject of the red tops and the chattering masses all in the name of entertainment…theres nothing like humiliating people.

    “Ohh she/he likes fantasizing about being tied/tying up and being spanked/spanking….the dirty whore/rapist”

    Our victorian attitudes never left….watch.

    there must be some sort of tory minister exemption clause or the entire cabinet will be going down

    we all know they like to play ‘the panzer commander and the milkmaid’

    They really want three options:

    – no porn
    – porn plus normal internet
    – only porn

    So does this mean that i’m a criminal for lets some people spank me till i bleed?

    I wonder if the Daily Mail actually does more harm than legal porn.

    It might be a gateway to prejudice, bigotry and xenophobia. I wonder how many EDL members read the Daily Mail before signing up to join EDL?

    So does this mean that i’m a criminal for lets some people spank me till i bleed?

    Sadly, the law is already woolly enough to allow an assault conviction to be pursued in that case; consent doesn’t come into it.

    At the risk of being a bit Daily Mail “slippery slope / thin end of the wedge” fallacy (phallusy, ho ho!), what concerns me is that when the filtering technology is established and proven, it’s fairly inevitable that the next step is to use it to enforce other laws. It’d be a sad state of affairs if a couple in a loving relationship ended up on the sex offenders list for shopping for floggers.

    And it’s not just sex either, of course. Trying to buy drugs on the Internet? Organising an illegal rave? Torrenting last night’s Big Brother? It seems highly unlikely that this tech will go in and then the government won’t want to use it.

    Torrenting last night’s Big Brother?

    Do people actually watch this stuff?

    and will you choose to receive it ?

    Yes

    probably be a register made of people that have registered which will be made public…

    Fine. If you are worried about your wife/friends finding out about that

    You have the wrong wife/friends.

    .

    Oh, and one last point – will a register be kept of who opts in to receiving ‘Nekked Pictures’?
    And would you want to be on it when it’s inevitably hacked/leaked?

    Wouldn’t bother me in the slightest.

    Same old story, there’s things you can legally do, legally film, legally share but the person you share with could be committing an offence. Genius.

    How will this even work considering that so much material these days is not hosted on porn sites? Consider Reddit for example a legitimate site where in certain areas there is plenty of interesting content to be found but the individual images are hosted on sites such as imgur. Tumblr as well, how do you manage that one?

    You know when i was a child, in the later days of the cold war they used to say the west was free, i really used to believe that as well, sadly i no longer do.

    From what I remember of the 80s access to pornography was severely limited.

    will be interesting.

    I’ve seen people observe images of gangbangs or more males with 1 female sex scenarios and describe it as gang rape. Of course all these scenarios are legal and consentual (not my thing, before anyone asks :lol:)

    it only takes a few over zealous people on google hitting the report function to cause havoc as the costs to police it all spiral out of control

    I can imagine Max Hardcore’s lawyers would have a very interesting exchange of words with the UK Gov when he files for loss of earnings.

    I think this will create some very interesting conversations between married couples!

    I logged on to talktalk (my isp) the other day to check the bill and the first thing it did was force me to click one way or the other about a porn filter (by another name). On clicking (fortunately the right choice!) button it immediately emailed our shared email account with my decision to block. I dunno, maybe Mrs C was a closet S&M fan and is gutted by my choice!

    Also,

    Sites like Behance – a creative social network for everyone from photographers & designers to fine artists and fashion designers.

    They have their own built in content filter as quite a lot of work in the art world can be very mature. Whilst not exactly porn it is definitely full frontal nudity, and in some extreme cases, images of sex acts.

    This is the minority of work on the site (Less than 1%) – most is really high caliber design, photography, branding etc that is totally SFW.

    Will they get hit by the ban hammer?

    And what about wikipedia?! They have images of genitals, genitals with STI’s, and definitions of sex acts all over them.

    The more you look into this the more it looks like the start of a book burning.

    @nealg – what about employers, your neighbours, the teachers at the school your kids go to, agencies of other countries your applying for a visa for (looking at you Amerka).

    How about being on a government watch list as you clearly have depraved views so your internet activity is monitored closely?

    What happens when they want you to opt in to view certain political views / commentary etc?

    This is a dangerous dangerous move that will not achieve its stated aims.

    Government control of a free information resource? No thanks.

    The stance against abuse seems OK (with provisos) but ultimately it’ll be ineffective (Google etc try to block that stuff anyway).

    Could we have a

    – porn + STW option?

    For my friend.

    There’s going to be some very very pissed off teens living with mum when they realise she’s blocked their porn! Sales of replacement keyboards (liquid damage) will no doubt slump.

    “All of us can think of a book… that we hope none of our children or any other children have taken off the shelf. But if I have the right to remove that book from the shelf — that book I abhor — then you also have exactly the same right and so does everyone else. And then we have no books left on the shelf for any of us.” Katherine Patterson

    It’ll take 20 minutes, even for the thick ones, to figure out how to get around it.

    @ Tucker Which works well until we discuss child porn – which involves victims of legal abuse or perhaps till we get to Islamic websites describing how to make bombs for example

    Most folk agree in censorship though we could debate where the line is drawn

    banning access to child pornography [ which is already illegal and I assume we all agree with this] and making adults choose to access porn is NOT just like burning books

    It may be a good thing or a bad thing but it is not like burning books FFS it is barely hiding the books never mind burning them – its like having to ask to go to the library
