Hmmm, well I long gave up the fantasy that most of us are free to do as we please and live our lives unobserved and unmonitored if we do no harm to anyone else. Seems it is just going to take another step in the UK toward restricting the rights of the net users. This story seems to become a legislated reality, restricting what one minister just outlined on TV the right of UK web users to view their porn if it contains any government decided inappropriate image content such as degradation, violence, torture. While restrictions have been in place involving UK based sites, print material etc., of showing or owning violence based porn, they now aim to extend that to preventing UK people from accessing such porn from overseas providers. The use of credit card companies to inform on their clients is not a new one and has been seen in the past by restricting what those credit cards can be used for....blah!! Now they are proposing the possession or use of any visual material online or otherwise that has what we term BDSM as a theme, as qualifying as an offence similar to child porn. They are proposing that similar to their child porn campaign where they seized computers and examined the contents, they will now apply the same to those who look at any violent pornography as decided by their legislation of what is illegal and inappropriate. This world is going nuts I am sure.
